Thoughtful Gifts with a Culinary Twist
Sensory experiences spark physical and emotional discovery. Adding surprise, which only occurs when assumptions are challenged, creates a pivoting engagement that can transform our approach to new ideas.
We’ve curated this tasting kit to surprise and inspire with sensations that engage and challenge assumptions about chocolate, pickles, spices and tea.
Kit Includes:
Dark Chocolate from Vietnam- explore the flavors of a regional agroforestry system and the monsoon climate, created by artisanal chocolate maker Marou.
AMOT Crafted Saffron Gold Infused Sugar- Warm and herbaceous, this sugar lends an elegant twist to berries or a sunshine hue when sprinkled on frosting.
AMOT Crafted Hawajj Spice- our version of a traditional Jewish/Yemeni coffee spice blends sweet and savory spices like cinnamon, cumin, clove, and black pepper.
AMOT Crafted Nordic Quick Pickle Mixes- create your own quick pickles using culinary acids and our nordic spice. Transform citrus, veg or fruit into a complex and tangy treat.
AMOT Crafted Gather Strength Herbal Tea - a grounding blend for moments of reflection and courageous next steps
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.
Taste like a pro- try our blends sprinkled on popcorn. We’ve included a sample of our favorite heirloom corn from Anson Mills.
Shift your perspective with our collection of functional herbal teas.
Teas, including the broad category of floral and herbal infusions and tisanes, offer a rich sensory pathway to explore how colors, flavors, and aromas influence our experience. We see tea not merely as a beverage, but as a functional tool for shaping our emotional, mental and collaborative states.
