Read Verified Customer ReviewsI 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!
The items purchased at Heray Spice are very flavorful and of excellent quality!!
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!
This is some of the finest saffron I've tasted, the freshness and quality is noticeably better to what you find in regular stores. I especially appreciate the company's mission and ethics, you can see the layers of intention and attention woven into every detail. Thanks, Heray, for a great product!
