Paprika for color, cumin and coriander doing the classic earthy-citrus pairing that shows up in nearly every Southwestern blend, garlic and oregano underneath, cayenne and red pepper flakes for layered heat instead of one flat burn.
Nine organic ingredients: paprika, coriander seed, cumin, garlic, black pepper, oregano, cayenne, red pepper flakes, and sea salt.
Good on skirt steak for tacos, in a pot of black beans, rubbed onto ribs before the smoker.

Certifications & Testing
- Certified organic — Colorado Department of Agriculture (USDA NOP)

- We test heavy metals at the ingredient level, not per blended batch — testing a finished small-batch blend isn’t cost-effective at our volume. Every ingredient in this blend falls below the limits set by ASTA and the EU; the FDA has not established its own guidelines.
- No fillers, no anticaking agents, no irradiation — steam sterilized only

Storage and Shelf Life
Storage and Shelf Life
Storage: To maximize freshness, store in a dark airtight container in a cool dry place. Once the spice is ground, flavor deteriorates with exposure to light, heat, air, humidity and time. Here are rules of thumb about the shelf life of spices and herbs >
NOTE: The plastic refill bags are not intended for long-term storage of your spices. Due to the porous nature of plastic, the essential oils that are released when a spice is ground, may react with the plastic and/or labelling inks over time.
Refill bags contain the same amount of spice as in our small glass jars. When they arrive, simply snip the corner of your bag, refill your original Smith & Truslow spice jar, apply the new label, and recycle the bag.
Product Testing
Product Testing
Certificates of analysis (COAs) accompany our products through the supply chain. COAs identify country of origin, certifications, and information on product testing including microbial analysis and heavy metal testing.
Click the View Heavy Metal Test Results Link on the product detail page to see the COA documentation.
As we only test ingredients, but not blends, we can only provide COA's on individual spices.
