Frequently Asked Questions

black and yellow bee with light blue wings flying
Are all your spices organic?

Our farm partners have been cultivating spices using practices that go "beyond organic" for well over five years. Although they haven't obtained USDA certification yet, this is primarily because the initial certification can be costly and may lead to cycles of debt. To meet USDA standards, four years of inspections and certificates are required after the first certification. However, we consider this process redundant and unnecessary since we conduct thorough testing on every batch we procure. It's a prerequisite for Diaspora Co. to select farm partners whose soil health and agricultural practices align with our internal standards of growing food regeneratively.

Do you sell wholesale?

We do! You can search for our wholesalers using our store locator here. And if you are a wholesaler and don’t see yourself on the locator, please email wholesale@diasporaco.live and we will add you to this ASAP! Thank you!

When do the spices expire? How long do they last?

Most of the spices are good 2 years from the mill date, which is listed on the harvest label sticker on the jar or bag. That being said, our spices are extremely potent and fresh as we take incredible care to source yearly and aim for quality, so 2 years is our most conservative guideline, compared to most spices in the grocery store which are often 5-10 years old upon purchase.

What is the best way to store the spices?

Store them in an airtight container in a dark, dry place. Do not store spices in direct sunlight, as this will shorten their shelf life.

What is included in Diaspora Spice Co.'s Ultimate Chai Kit?

The Ultimate Chai Kit includes two pantry essentials: our Masala Chai Blend, a chai spice blend made with bold Assam CTC black tea and freshly harvested spices, and Madhur Jaggery Powder, an unrefined cane sugar with deep caramel notes. Together, they provide everything you need to brew a rich, traditional cup of masala chai at home.

How do I use Diaspora Spice Co.'s Ultimate Chai Kit?

Simmer the Masala Chai Blend with water, milk, and your preferred amount of Madhur Jaggery Powder for 6 to 7 minutes. Strain and serve. The tea and spices are already perfectly balanced, so you only need to adjust the sweetness to your liking.

What is a chai kit?

A chai kit brings together the essential ingredients needed to make authentic masala chai at home. Our Ultimate Chai Kit combines a ready-to-brew chai blend made with Assam black tea and whole spices with jaggery powder, making it easy to prepare a deeply flavorful cup without measuring individual spices or sweeteners.

What are the benefits of using jaggery instead of refined sugar in chai?

Jaggery adds more than sweetness to chai. Because it is minimally processed, jaggery powder brings rich caramel and molasses notes that complement the warming spices in masala chai. It is also a traditional sweetener used in many South Asian drinks and desserts, creating a fuller and more complex flavor than refined white sugar.

What is masala chai made of?

Masala chai is traditionally made by simmering black tea with warming spices such as cardamom, ginger, cinnamon, fennel, cloves, and black pepper, along with milk and a sweetener. Every household has its own recipe, but the result is a bold and fragrant cup that is both comforting and invigorating.
