I continue to order from Heray Spice again and again, for myself and to give as gifts. The quality is excellent, and the packaging is attractive. And it's been very enjoyable to try new tests - the black lime powder is fantastic!

Brittany W.Verified Customer Review

So fresh! I ordered the cumin and saffron, and wow! What you can buy in the grocery store smells stale and bland compared to this. I’ve recommended Heray Spice to all my other foodie friends.

Though I ordered cardamom,
I’ve always wanted to try harissa, and it was a happy surprise!
