Our farm visits across Asia have shown us that the fresher the spice, the richer the flavour. It all began with a trip to India in 2018, where we brought back cardamom, pepper, cloves, and more to make masala chai. The result? A burst of flavours that quickly became a favourite. Freshly harvested spices elevate our dishes in ways supermarket spices simply can’t match. With direct relationships with our spice producers, we receive their latest harvests in just days, preserving essential oils and aromas that bring the true taste of Asia to your table.

Organic farming allows the use of natural pesticides, but they aren't always harmless. Our producers avoid harmful chemicals, ensuring that fresh, natural spices promote health. In India, Ayurveda, the world's oldest medical system, uses spices to balance our body’s energies. By incorporating natural spices into our diets, we not only enjoy their flavours but also their health benefits.

Even in organic farming, some pesticides can harm plants and insects. Our farmers practise natural farming, avoiding chemicals altogether. We prioritise gentle methods like permaculture, natural farming, and agroforestry, which protect biodiversity and avoid the damaging effects of monoculture. Our spices grow in harmony with nature, free from chemical interventions.

Permaculture, a concept developed in the 1970s, focuses on soil preservation, water conservation, and biodiversity. It’s about caring for the earth, people, and rethinking how we consume and produce.
