Allspice (Pimenta dioica), also called Jamaica pepper, pepper, myrtle pepper, pimenta, pimento, newspice, is the dried unripe fruit of a tree native to the Greater Antilles, southern Mexico, and Central America. This spice is now cultivated all around the world. The fruits of the tree are picked when green and unripe and are dried in the sun. When fully dry, they are brown and resemble large brown peppercorns. Allspice is one of the most important ingredients of Caribbean cuisine. It is used in Caribbean jerk seasoning.
