Read more below about what makes Spice Islands so special. A staple in Southern European food, basil is one of the most widely used herbs in the world. It adds a delicately sweet flavor and warm aroma to savory dishes, and naturally combines with garlic, capers and tomatoes. Our Spice Islands sweet basil is sourced from California, known for its particularly flavorful basil. The basil is machine-harvested and dried to preserve its color and aroma. The result is a much cleaner product with a robust taste and fresh green color. Fun Fact: The ancient Greeks thought so highly of basil that they called it basilikon phyton, or "kingly herb." Our Sweet Basil is only basil. Spice Islands spices and herbs don't contain added sugar, fillers or other ingredients so you get the most authentic flavor every time.

We finely grind whole peppercorns to provide a bold, full-bodied pepper that enhances a variety of foods. The world’s most popular and frequently traded spice, black pepper is prized for its hot, biting flavor and pungent aroma.
