    We love the spices. They always ensure we get our Best Buy. They elevate flavors well with whatever we cook. We had some great customer service. Today my HIPA rights were violated. I promise you not another dime will I ever spend at your store. What a shame to do to a long standing, good paying customer. You also violated the law. Shame on you. Not only did I shop in person but on line with your store. Done!

    This was the only place in the Sarasota area that had Dill Seed in stock. Plus, you can purchase as much or as little as you need (e.g., 1 ounce, 5 ounces, etc.). Everywhere else, you have to order it online and, of course, pay for shipping. The staff was very friendly and they had all kinds of goodies.

    Went here for my first time and absolutely had a wonderful experience, the place smelled quite amazing as soon as you walk in and truly beyond lovely polite people that were very very helpful 🥰 I would HIGHLY recommend stopping here!

    One of my favorite shops in St Armand’s Circle. I just wanted to poke my head in but the wonderful smells made me stay! I wish I had gotten the name of the woman who made my iced tea to go. She was very friendly and I loved her bubbly personality! I ordered one of their seasonal teas, the ROYGBIV, iced. Definitely the better choice over Starbucks, also on the circle. Thank you for the pleasant experience and delicious tea!

    This place is awesome! My wife and I found this place after eating dinner with family in the area. The amount of products they have is astonishing and their customer service is even better! We accidentally purchased a display box that was missing the product inside and they were so responsive in getting what we needed shipped to us in Tampa! HIGHLY recommend stopping in this place and supporting this superb small business. We will be back!

    The Lemon Drop Maté is fantastic, definitely a great pick! And the staff are super knowledgeable as well!

    I recognized this shop as one I visited in Mystic CT. My friend and I had a great time looking at the various teas and spices before we made our purchases. The ladies in the shop were very friendly and knowledgeable about the teas...helping us to choose our flavors. We both chose the Elderberry Fortress Herbal Tea blend. I've been drinking mine iced and will definitely make it a hot beverage as it gets colder. I plan to order online when I need to replenish!

    A Magical Shop That Takes You on a Journey of Pure Bliss
From the moment you walk into this enchanting shop, you'll feel like you have entered a wonderland of all things amazing! The aroma of freshly-ground spices and handcrafted teas will fill your nostrils and the cozy atmosphere will embrace you like an old friend. The staff working there are very knowledgeable, overflowing with knowledge and ready to share their secrets. Even if you don't end up buying anything, you'll leave with your spirit feeling uplifted by the good vibes. And the space itself is immaculate - so clean that you could eat off the floors (although we wouldn't recommend it). The employees and Managers are always working together and make such a great TEAm! This shop is a must-visit in Sarasota as it provides a sanctuary for your senses and a treat for your soul!
