What matters when shipping Turkish tea and spices

Tea and spices are among the lightest goods, so a parcel is charged at the minimum weight, and combining them with other light foods saves cost.

Packs and shelf life

Order products in their original sealed factory packs, clearly labelled with ingredients and expiry date. Ground spices are affected by moisture, so tight packs are better than loose weighed bags. Every country has rules on importing food and herbs, even for personal use, so ask about the allowed quantity before buying.

Ready blends or single herbs

Tea blends with spices such as cinnamon, clove and ginger save you mixing, while single herbs let you set the flavour yourself. Start with a small blend to learn what suits your taste, then buy more of the one you liked.

Aroma leaking from the pack

Strongly scented spices pass their flavour to other foods in the parcel, so ask for tightly closed packs and double bags. Tea keeps its flavour for months when stored away from light and damp.

Light and easy to combine

Tea and spices are very light, so several kinds can go in one small carton. Sort them into separate bags and write each blend’s name on the bag so they do not get mixed up on arrival.
