Cloves and pimento (also known as allspice) are not directly related, as they come from different plant families. Cloves are the dried flower buds of the Syzygium aromaticum tree, belonging to the Myrtaceae family. Pimento, on the other hand, is the dried berry of the Pimenta dioica plant, also part of the Myrtaceae family but a different genus. While they share some flavor characteristics, they are distinct spices with different botanical origins.
