Spices get their intense flavor and aroma from volatile oils locked inside the whole spice. Grinding spices releases these oils, which means that many pre-ground spices—while convenient—have lost a lot of their magic before they reach your kitchen. The fresher the grind, the more potent the spice. This set contains 3 whole spice blends that you grind fresh yourself. Each spice is carefully selected and curated from farms that practice environmental stewardship and empower their local communities.
