Crude Nutmeg Heads

Original designation: Muscade têtes brutes

Myristica fragrans Houtt.

Nutmeg heads suggest the dense first or heavy portion of a process stream: warm wood, spice dust and terpenic darkness. The character is less garnish than patina, ideal for aged-looking amber and tobacco structures.

Extraction & expression

Fractionation isolates a particular register of a larger material. Heads and terpene cuts tend toward lift; hearts focus the central identity; body and bottom cuts gather weight, shadow and less-volatile depth. The crude grade keeps a broad, unpolished spectrum, often the most textural and revealing view of the source. A head cut favours the brightest, quickest and most volatile opening facets.
