United StatesI have been eyeing Rumi Spices for a while, and it just so happened that we ran out of fennel and cumin at the same time. Then, my chef husband said we needed whole coriander - so no-brainer order since those three items are included in the gift set. It's a pandemic, so we gifted ourselves. The quality is superb. And the flavor, especially in the coriander (!) is really amazing. Worth every penny.
United StatesThe freshest spices i have ever used !!!
Thank you!
