Wild-grown, harvested with care by local foragers, then roasted and ground in small batches by a team of women in Kabul, our bestselling Wild Mountain Cumin is now available in a fine powder form. First launched as a Spice Club exclusive, we’re now offering this new fragrant harvest from Badakhshan, Afghanistan, to all. | | “This cumin is amazing,” says our customer Sharon, “It’s like night and day, compared to prior products.” Bold and toasty with warming savoriness and nutty sweetness, Ground Wild Mountain Cumin is botanically distinct and unlike any other cumin we’ve tasted. With flavors so complex, it inspired the launch of this spice company: Burlap & Barrel is the only US importer of this unique spice from Afghanistan. | | As we continue to strengthen our partnerships with cultivators worldwide, we’re able to source more of the rarest, most delicious and most exciting flavors in existence. Our longtime partner Dawood explains, “Every batch of cumin is a product of hard work and tradition. By choosing this cumin, you're not only adding a flavorful spice to dishes but also supporting local families and their communities in meeting their daily needs, even in the most remote areas.” Ground Wild Mountain Cumin is produced with the help of women in Afghanistan, and together with Herati Saffron, provides reliable employment opportunities where women are otherwise barred from working in many sectors. | | Questions?
