Description
Our Jamaica pimento - or ‘myrtle berry’ - is harvested by Jamaican tree climbers. The use of machetes is prohibited as the iron blades can react with and poison the tree, so the twigs and branches are snapped by hand and dropped. These branches are then flailed to loosen the berries, which are sun dried for seven days, crushed, and distilled at source.
