United StatesMy family loves the spices and spice blends from Rumi. I am so happy that I found this site. We use the spices everyday in our meal preparations. I had not used the whole spices yet, but this year I ordered them along with the olive wood mortar and pestle. The mortar and pestle are beautiful and it is glorious to be able to use it to grind these whole spices. Thank you Rumi!
