The Spice Merchant

Grocery Stores and Bulk Stores

Yes! Our spice is sourced from select farms which we visit ourselves

Purchase from bulk importers that combine different varieties of spices from multiple regions

We work directly with our farmers to ensure payment goes directly to their staff.

Spices originate from large corporations, often not traceable 

All our spices are imported in small quantities. Our blends are made in small batches 

Often spices have been sitting on the shelves for 4 or 5 years

We blend all our spices from whole to powder ourselves to ensure nothing extra is added

Spices contain Pesticides, heavy metals and fillers such as saw dust or MSG

"After visiting over 120 countries and collecting a wealth of spices along the way, Stephen Gollan, founder of The Spice Merchant and author of the popular travel blog Uncharted Backpacker, knows one thing for sure: every spice comes with a story"

MAGAZINE

Huge selection of fragrant, fresh, high quality spices and herbs, with tester samples to smell and examine. Once you try these herbs and spices, you'll never go back to the overpriced chaff they sell in the grocery stores. You need damask rose buds? He's got them! Want some Tasmanian pepper berry? My dude has it! Craving some Ras el Hanout? Got 'ya covered!  If you need it, he's probably got it. If you didn't realize you needed it, he's got that, too! If you're nervous about trying a new spice, don't be embarrassed to ask about them, the owner is more than happy to assist.
