About Us

We saw a world of stale, dull seasonings and set out to spice it up.
For the Love of Flavor
At Spiceology, the love of flavor drives us to keep dreaming and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in a spoonful of spices.

What We Believe

We believe in flavor, not flavoring. We source only premium, natural ingredients, with no fillers or funky stuff.

We believe that fresh matters. Our spices are ground fresh in small batches and shipped fresh from our Spokane, WA facility

We believe in experimenting with flavor. Our never-before-tasted flavors are the foundation of endless creativity for chefs and home cooks alike

We believe great food is better when it’s shared. We are part of a flavor community, sharing recipes and ideas with hundreds of thousands of chefs and home cooks each day. 

We believe in catering to the give-a-shit crowd. We’re not for those who just want a fast meal. We’re for those who want every meal, fast or slow, to be exceptional every time.

We believe that spice is the variety of life. Does the world really need us to make 300+ spices and blends? Maybe not, but the world would sure be blander without them.

I took my culinary expertise, found a badass partner in Heather, and launched a spicy rocket ship with Smoky Honey Habanero.

THE BEGINNING
A chef and a food blogger walk in to a bar... kidding.
From humble beginnings at Spokane area farmers’ markets in 2013, Spiceology has grown to become the fastest-growing spice company in the world, listed on the Inc 5000 for six years and counting. Spiceology‘s founders, executive chef Pete Taylor and food blogger Heather Scholten, saw a stale spice and seasoning market ripe for disruption: chefs and home cooks lacked easy access to unique ingredients and blends that could bring an extra dose of magic to their cooking.

Pete‘s first blend, Smoky Honey Habanero, put Spiceology on the map with its smoky-sweet heat that brightens every dish. It remains a bestseller to this day, but it‘s now joined by nearly 300 original blends and core spices, such as chiles, herbs, salts, confections, fruit and vegetable powders.
