Product Abstract: This evergreen tree is indigenous to the West Indies and South America. It reaches about 10 meters in height and begins to produce fruit in its third year. The Spanish called it 'pimento' because the dried berries looked like dried peppercorns. Many consider this an excellent fall oil but is a definite year round winner. Widely used in the blending of masculine scents.
