Since time immemorial, humans have used blends of herbs and spices to create community-relevant flavors. Many of the most widely used ingredients —like peppers, cinnamon, or garlic— create mouth sensations like piquancy/spicy or astringency. Countless global cuisines rely on these elements to highlight or balance rich foods, both sweet and savory.
Challenging ourselves to taste from another’s perspective gives us truly personal insight to how others experience their world, and how they like it seasoned!
We see spices as versatile solos and powerful harmonies. Our core blends— Umami Boost, Nordic Spice, Hawajj, and Rose Harissa—are designed to be combined for even more depth, representing unique blended conversations that create a symphony of flavor and discovery. The sensory mash-up of harmonious voices and harmonious flavors creates lasting memories.
