Rumi Spice sources top quality spices sourced directly from farmers and producers, using the highest standards in organic and fair trade agriculture for our spice blends.
Its best used to spice hot apple cider, mulled wine, wassail, and other warm drinks during autumn or winter. Our personal favorite is our take on the Danish 'gløgg', which is a Nordic-style mulled wine made with a mixture of red wine and rum and mulled with raisins and almonds.
For 4 cups of cider/mulled beverage of choice, add 2 Tbsp. traditional mulling spice and heat until simmering (do not boil!). Keep hot for 10-20 minutes straining and serving.
For 1/2 gallon of cider/mulled beverage, use 4 Tbsp.
Pro tip: using a slow-cooker to prepare your mulled drink allows the aroma to be savored for hours.
Our Mission
We are a public benefit corporation and are committed to empowering Afghan women and bolstering the country’s economy. Rumi reinvests back into agricultural and manufacturing infrastructure.
Connecting AfghanistanRumi began with a mission to cultivate peace in Afghanistan. Over 80% of the Afghan population is reliant on the rural agricultural economy. The success of the spice industry not only helps farmers and the women providing direct labor, it can touch every member of the village we work in. We have seen output from our existing partners double and triple, while new farmers have asked to join our network.
With hot, dry winds over semi-arid lands, Afghanistan’s growing region is ideal for growing saffron and other artisanal spices. For example, in 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018, the International Taste and Quality Institute of Brussels awarded Afghan saffron first place out of 30 competing regions. Rumi saffron is tested in accordance with ISO (International Standards Organization) protocol 3632 and surpasses the highest standards for Category 1 saffron by over 25%. Our test results show that our farmers are producing some of the world’s best saffron.

Reviews
United StatesI bought the (3) Mulling Spices as gifts for Christmas. I know they'll be appreciated. I, personally, chose them for the potent, special & vital array of choice spices you have in the mix. It's exactly what I was searching, diligently, for. Thanks SO much! It's a perfect blend!! Sincerely, Theresa D.
United StatesSuch a unique mulling spice- the saffron really gives it that extra push, however delicate.
United StatesThis is likely the best mulling spice I've ever used. The spiced cider is even good cold. If you add a shot of tuaca liqueur, it becomes phenomenal. Our left-over mulled cider also made an excellent base for a sauce. 10/10, will be buying this again!
United StatesThe Mulling Spice is about the eighth or so item I've purchased from Rumi. As ever, the quality of the spices is fantastic and the blend is well balanced. Used a little to make a test batch of mulled wine to get ready for the winter. My kitchen smells amazing - complex scents of cinnamon and citrus and saffron. And the taste is incredible. Looking forward to making some cider with this as well. For the ethos of the company and quality of the product, Rumi is far and away one of the better spice companies out there.
This is the BEST mulling blend that I have ever had anywhere, any time. Period. The scent is delicious. The taste is somehow buttery. Huh? But Wow! My only complaint is that I cannot buy it in a larger container. I need a larger size -- possibly in a tin of some kind. I would be giving this out a LOT as a Christmas gift if I could get something more gifty-looking and less wasteful-seeming than little bottles.
