United StatesExcellent quality products supporting a good cause.
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!
United StatesI was introduced to saffron 20 yrs ago. It was not the best but the flavor intrigued me. After trying Rumi saffron I was hooked. Hoping this saffron is availed for a long time to come!!!
United StatesMy set recently arrived. The olive wood mortar and pestle are both beautiful and very functional. I tried the coriander and cumin seeds for the first time, toasting them and then grinding in the mortar and pestle, to make Middle Eastern style peppers stuffed with lamb. The wonderful fragrances filled the house. These are the highest quality spices I've ever purchased. And I'm enjoying the saffron purchased earlier as well! Rumi products are great for the home chef who desires the highest quality ingredients.
