Spice may point me another way (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pimento

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

'point me another way' is the wordplay.
'another way' is an anagram indicator.
'point'+'me'='pointme'
'pointme' with letters rearranged gives 'PIMENTO'.

'may' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for pimento that I've seen before include "Something spicy" , "Spicy berries" , "Jamaica pepper" , "Type of pepper" , "Sweet red pepper" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
