Our story

Sri Lanka grows some of the world's most celebrated spices and teas. True cinnamon, pepper, cloves, nutmeg and mace, and tea from the cool Central Highlands all come from one small island.

We wanted to bring them to kitchens far away in a way that respects the ingredient: small batches, sealed in tins, labeled with where they were grown, and delivered with care.

The arch on our tins is a doorway and a sunrise over the sea. Open a tin, breathe in, and cook something that tastes of somewhere else.
