What it is?
From the long-simmering delight of rare Mexican chiles to the coffee-and-citrus-drenches aromas of Nicaragua to the stewy, smoky flavors of the southwest–this spice box takes your taste buds on a tour they’ll never forget. Includes 1 jar of Mombacho Café, 1 jar of California Love and 1 jar of Masa Mole.
- Mombacho Café Nicaraguan Blend - Nicaraguan espresso-citrus adobo blend inspired by an adventure through Mombacho Volcano’s coffee plantation and the grilled street food of Granada. Subtle hints of espresso, garlic, cumin, oregano and citrus pair very nicely with pork and chicken. This spice blend is made for the BBQ lover, crafted to let the meat itself shine through. Also delicious in braises, beans, rice and many other dishes. Ingredients: Garlic, Orange Peel, Black Pepper, Espresso, Cumin, Oregano, Lemon Peel, Lime Peel
- California Love All Purpose Chile Blend - Delicious on anything you would use chile powder on (makes the best taco seasoning!). These stewy, smoky flavors of the south and southwest are linked to my West Coast upbringing. From popcorn dust to barbecue marinades to a smashing sofrito, California Love’s flavor notes rumble, but don’t tingle, despite the chile. Ingredients: Chiles, Cumin, Coriander, Garlic, Onion, Oregano, Bay Leaf
- Masa Mole Mexican Blend - A blend of roasted Mexican chiles and warm spices reminiscent of the complex mole sauces found throughout Mexico. This blend honors not only the country’s culinary greats but the humble superheroes' hand-grinding maize, chilies, and spices in their home kitchens. Tastes great on pork and beef, carnitas with orange and thyme, barbacoa, homemade Mexican chorizo, quick Mole sauce, salsas, beans, many more Mexican inspired recipes. Ingredients: Chipotle. Guajillo, Cumin, True Cinnamon, Garlic, Onion, Allspice, Oregano

Tips for Success
- Clumping is normal as we don’t use anti caking agents or salt. If clumping occurs simply break apart with your hands before seasoning.
- Try not to pour spices out of the jar over a steaming pot or pan as the steam can get in the jar and cause further clumping.
- For maximum flavor make sure to use with salt.
- Ground spices can burn quickly so make sure to use oil to help distribute the heat more evenly when making a rub.
