Bought by the harvest, not the pallet
The shop started as a spice table at an international market, where the owner kept getting asked where things actually came from and realized most shoppers had never once been told. Every jar here still carries that answer.
We work with growers and small cooperatives directly where we can, and with importers who will tell us the farm and the year where we cannot. If we cannot trace a spice back that far, we do not carry it.
The grinder in the back room runs most mornings. What is on the wall today was likely whole a week ago.
