About
World Spice is a women-owned business providing home cooks with spices, blends, and teas from around the world. Here you can find simple recipes, hard-to-find spices, bespoke blends, and a strong community of cooking who love flavorful food as much as you do.
We want to bring joy to the plate, one home cook at a time.

Serving You Since 1995
Our Flagship store adjacent to Seattle’s Pike Place Market is a thriving hub of flavor exploration serving the community since 1995. We will continue to bring our community over 300 selections of pure herbs, spices, handcrafted blends, and estate teas for many years to come.

A Truly Unique Experience
Sourcing fresh ingredients, grinding spices in small batches, and handcrafting our blends in-house allows us to bring you the highest quality spices available. We offer whole and ground spices so you can choose the best way to experience your spices.

The Flavors That Bind Us
For almost 30 years, we've focused on creating a strong community of home cooks. To better serve our community we have launched a Rewards Program, built recipes based on your feedback, and we will continue to iterate on new and even better ways to help people bring joy to cooking.

Broadening Our Horizons
We started as a retail store near Pike Place Market in 1995, opened an outpost in Montana for several years, and now we've operating our warehouse in Durham, North Carolina.
We're so proud to be a member of these communities.

A New Package for a Better World
Our new packaging is made from recyclable materials and can be recycled wherever soft plastics are accepted. These pouches are barrier safe, keeping all the freshness inside.

Bringing New Color to the Table
We work hard to be the place where you can indulge in all the unique flavors that the world has to offer, and we want our brand to represent this global view. The world and dinner table are colorful—and now we are too.
