Our Story

If spices are the soul of a dish, season with the finest.

Not all spices are created equally. The unfortunate truth: most spices are three years old before reaching your plate, losing the vibrant flavour every home chef deserves.

From farm to fork in months, not years

Founded in 2024 by Rupert and Alice, Spice Department is on a mission to change the spice industry for good. A compendium of the freshest, single-origin spices, sourced for quality, with a commitment to shortening the journey between farm and fork.
