Mulling Spice

The 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.

I mean, talk about true sustainability meeting an entrepreneurship concept. International farm product using a good business model and you have Rumi. Ive loved their Kabul Piquant Chicken Spice and Mulling Spice. I made Orange Marmalade BBQ Chicken Thighs with the Chicken spice sprinkled in. Ive used the mulling spice in making Chai Tea Lattes and Holiday Spiced Wine. Talk about yum!! The saffron harvested by the farmers in Aghanistan puts their product in the hands of chefs, home cooks, and anyone that serves a social justice model.
