Fabstor is a certified B2B exporter and bulk supplier of premium Indian Whole Nutmeg (Myristica fragrans / Jaiphal), supplying food manufacturers, pharmaceutical extractors, oleoresin distillers, and wholesale spice importers across the USA, Europe, Middle East (GCC), and Asia-Pacific.
Directly sourced from the fertile tropical belts of Kerala (Idukki, Kottayam) and Karnataka, our nutmeg is sorted, garbled, crack-tested for internal mold, and certified 100% bore-free (Araecerus fasciculatus insect check).

Nutmeg weevils (Araecerus fasciculatus) bore deep cavities invisible from the outside; we conduct cut-testing and flotation checks to eliminate bored kernels.
Hidden internal fungal mold develops with excess origin moisture; keeping moisture under 10% ensures internal stability during long sea transit.
High natural myristicin and volatile oil yield superior aroma and higher extraction efficiency per metric ton.
Bold, heavy kernels (5g–7.5g each) reflect sound biological maturity and contain dense, oil-rich centers.
Naturally sun-cured kernels, 100% free from lime washing, artificial waxes, or chemical glossing.
Every batch undergoes manual cut-testing, flotation separation, and optical sorting to guarantee zero weevil bore holes and sound internal kernels.
