Description

In Swahili, “Bibi” evokes the graceful presence of a grandmother, a matriarch of wisdom and warmth. Inspired by this essence, we endeavoured to craft a spice blend that mirrors the very soul of a Swahili Bibi.

In pursuit of this vision, we turned to our Swahili companions, seeking their reflections on the essence of “Bibi.” Their responses painted a portrait of reverence: she is the storyteller, the nurturing heart, the patient guide who welcomes all with open arms. She embodies thoughtfulness and steadfastness, the embodiment of familial unity and solace. Like a serene green hue, she exudes tranquility and comfort.

From these heartfelt insights, Bibi’s Spice Blend was born, curated with care from the finest spices sourced from the farmers of Zanzibar.

Bibi’s Spice Blend encapsulates the rich tapestry of flavours found in the Swahili culture, each ingredient carefully selected to honour the legacy of the Bibi. Just as she weaves stories that resonate through generations, our blend weaves together a symphony of tastes that dance on the palate. With every sprinkle of Bibi’s Spice Blend, may you experience a taste of the love and wisdom that defines the essence of Swahili Bibi.

Who grew our Bibi’s All-Purpose Spice Blend?
grown in zanzibar
by our partners
Our spices come from small villages and subsistence farmers. With us you won’t find any large scale, orderly rows of monoculture spice plants. Instead, you will find our spices growing between the banana and jackfruit trees which the farmers use to feed themselves and their families.
