Club providing spice (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mace

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'club' is the first definition.
(mace can mean a club or stick)

'spice' is the second definition.
(I know that mace is a type of spice)

'providing' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for mace that I've seen before include "Spice from the nutmeg seed" , "Disabling spray" , "Came to get nutmeg spice" , "Staff of office for a flavouring" , "Staff - ground nutmeg" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
