Tins, a sleeve and a story card, ready to give the moment they arrive, anywhere in the world.
What makes a Sri Lankan spice different.
Sri Lanka is a small island with an outsized spice heritage. True cinnamon, pepper, cloves, nutmeg and mace have been grown here for centuries, in a climate of warm coasts, shaded hill gardens and cool, misty highlands. That variety of land is why one island can give you the sweet perfume of cinnamon, the heat of pepper and one of the world's most prized teas.
We name the region each product comes from, we pack in small batches in Sri Lanka, and we seal everything in tins that protect the aroma from light and air. A tin you open at your table should smell the way it smelled on the day it was packed.
Every product page explains how the spice or tea is grown and made, how it tastes, and how to use it, so you know exactly what you are buying and how to get the best from it.
