At medieval weddings in Germany, the bride and groom carried cumin, amongst other spices, in their pockets to secure themselves against infidelity. Generally, though, cumin is added to dishes all over the world for its warm, earthy aroma and flavour: a little bitter, even nutty, similar to caraway yet less intense. Also known as: Cummin, jeera

FAQs

A single origin spice comes from one specific growing region, rather than being combined with other spices into a blend. Because it's not mixed with anything else, you get the true, unaltered flavour of that spice.

A blend (like a Ras El Hanout or Souvlaki Rub) combines multiple spices to create a new, layered flavour. A single origin spice is just one ingredient on its own, which can be used in cooking, to create your own blends, or to season a dish with a distinct flavour.

We source each spice from its authentic land of origin, or from wherever in the world the quality is best. That's why you'll find, for example, Tasmanian Pepperberry, French Lavender and Cinnamon from Sri Lanka in our range, each is chosen because that region grows or produces it best.

Many of our ground single origin spices are milled locally in small batches to lock in freshness, rather than being milled overseas months before reaching Australian shelves. Whole spices are packed as they arrive from origin, so you can grind or use them as needed.
