Frequently Asked Questions

Whole spices can last a few years without losing flavor if stored properly. Ground spices start losing flavor after 3-6 months. However there is no expiration. For best results, store your spices in a cool place out of direct light.

Collabs are collaborations with other chef’s to bring their stories to life through our spices and their recipes.

Single origin spices can trace their origins back to a region (or terroir if we were being fancy), often a specific farm, and are sourced from that one location.

Spice blends are a mix of different  ethically sourced spices. Our Chef’s have experimented with many different combinations and ratios, and found the ones in the spice blends to be ideal. You get to benefit from 1000’s of hours of experimentation by our Chef’s.

Always. Mindfulness is at the core of everything that we do, and ensuring better than fair trade wages to our farmers is primary to being mindful of our farmers well-being.

Please email hello@spicetribe.com to request a testing report for a specific product.

We test our products before they are shipped by a farmer, and test it again after it reaches our warehouse. This ensures that we offer our Tribers the highest quality products that meet the high standards of our chefs.

We listened to you and found a partner who will supply us with 100% compostable high-quality packaging for our bulk pouches. Even though it costs us a premium, this is an investment in our Tribers and our planet.

We work as close to the source as possible, this often means directly importing from the farmer or cooperatives who source directly from farms. Each year we purchase the annual harvest for each spice we carry to ensure maximum freshness. We curate every spice journey, our chefs test the flavors, sometimes creating blends, and if it meets our high standards, we release it to our Tribers.
