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 StatesReally perked up dishes and such pure flavors are welcome.
Glad you enjoyed the spices! Thanks for the support
United StatesThe spices themselves are really lovely. Unfortunately, one of the bottles was badly broken during shipping. I emailed Rumi and received a response that same day saying they would immediately replace the product. That was super nice.
United StatesI eat a big salad every day and have been using the different blends on them. I love the Adobo the most and then the Chili. I've also used both of these in other dishes like black bean soup and mexican quinoa in place of whatever spices the recipe calls for and it's been yummy! I don't love the Baharat or the Berbere blends on my salads, but I've had Ethiopian food before and really liked it, so perhaps I just need to find a non-salad recipe to try these out on. I don't always like fruit or anything sweet with my salads, and both of these have a slightly sweet taste to me so that's probably why I don't like them as much.
United StatesBlends are amazing and so versatile. Go ahead! Open up your palate to something bew!
Wow, what a great surprise this was to get in the mail! Beautiful spices that are super fun to cook with, and packaged so prettily it was hard to take them out of the box - will definitely give this as a gift in the future.
