Unofficial nickname. The origins of the nutmeg connection to Connecticut is unknown. It may have come from its sailors returning from voyages with nutmeg. It may have originated in the early machined sheet tin nutmeg grinders sold by early Connecticut peddlers. It is also facetiously said to come from peddlers from Connecticut who would sell small carved nobs of wood shaped to look like nutmeg to unsuspecting customers.
