I visited this spice shop in October 2025 and had such a great experience. The in-store customer service was wonderful — they took the time to help me decide which spices to try, and I ended up loving them so much that I ordered gift sets for family Christmas presents! Their online customer service was just as fantastic; they kindly applied a discount I forgot to add at checkout after I reached out by email. The spices are amazing and I use them for everything. Great quality, highly recommend!

I like my food with a lot of flavor and this spice pack does not disappointment. The recipe is perfect and my whole family enjoyed it. It's now part of my regular rotation of easy and delicious weeknight meals.

My friends from Portland shipped me a care package with a sampling of Central Provisions' spices and rubs. They were all fantastic, but I have been scrambling to get a backup for the Vadouvan before I run out. This stuff on french fries is unbelievably good.

Hypothetically, if you lived with someone who loved pepper, but claimed not to like cumin... but you liked cumin... this garlic pepper could – in theory – act as a little spicy diplomat delivering an uppercase PEPPER experience while sneaking in a lowercase cumin vibe providing something of a win-win.

Not that this has happened, of course, but it could... ;-)

As a garlic & onion enthusiast, I recently purchased onion sea salt along with its cousin, garlic pepper.

Together, they have allowed me to expand my love of both into those areas that have traditionally not provided an obvious option for either. Making grits? Eggs? Onion salt and garlic pepper. Mac and cheese? Please. Cheesesteaks? Potato salad? Soup? Stirfry? Virtually anything savory, with or without onions and garlic, is only improved by a dash of both of these.

Some say I have a problem. I say, hold my Bloody Mary... you know, the one rimmed with onion sea salt and garlic pepper. :-D

This is one of my favorite spices. I use it on so many dishes from soups to meats to veggies.
I am very sorry to see that it is not in the store anymore and looks like it may be discontinued online.
Please keep this great product in the line up!

Beautiful color and vibrant flavor with just the right amount of heat!
Bella!

I made it this week. It was fragrant and full of flavor. We will have it again.

Friendly service, best holiday gifts!

My vegetarian and non vegetarian guests loved this dish.

Made it once and bought all the ingredients, now we make it “freehand.” So good!

Absolutely love this celery salt. Soo much more flavorful than the mass produced grocery store spices

Love this Bloody Mary mix! just the right amount of spices to make a really zippy bloody.

This is a great option for making cookies and baked goods, especially if using international recipes. I use it regularly when making South African tusks ( similar to biscotti).

It’s easy, tastes great, and cheaper than bottled pizza sauce! I just add 1 1/2 T of the Skordo blend to a large can of crushed tomatoes. It makes enough for three large pizzas. Can’t beat it!
