Very easy to shop for what I needed. It was a little problem with new customer form and a small section not filled in, highlighting missing info would have helped.
The website is easy to use, it's easy to know what you will pay at checkout, the variety of herbs is top-notch, the prices are fair. I love using this site/company!
Quality product. Site is easy to navigate. I've made multiple orders over time leaving me totally satisfied with the product and the service provided.
The ordering process and setting up a new account was quite easy.
Your prices and shipping have really gone up since changing from Herbalcom. I also miss the country of origin.
This website was very easy to use. The prices are affordable and the herbs a great quality I have already recommended this company to family members. Thank you.
I received quality products. Products are nicely packaged, and arrived rather quickly. The website is straight forward and very easy to use. Good information on each product is listed as well. I will definitely continue to order from Monterey Bay. The pricing is really good as well.

Good! I can't wait to receive my order!
I received it and I'm so very happy! It's a healthy way to live.
Website is easy to navigate even for an inexperienced computer user. Was amazed at how fast I received my order and the great quality of the herb that I ordered. Will definitely be using Monterey Bay Spice Co. For any of my herbal needs.
Ordering was easy enough. But order limit to get free shipping is way too high!
I was looking for organic yellow mustard from North America.
When I learned that only India mustard was available, I asked for a sample.
It came quickly. (I haven't yet had a chance to try it.)
Wow. Your endeavor has a lot of goods in one place. It'll take time for me to comprehend. Who would have known lest they searched?
And it couldn't have been easier. The only difficulty I had was in deciding which tea might suit me. I grew up in the South where sweet tea on ice is summer. It always has been.
I've told my extended family of friends about Monterey Bay.
This is truly what good living is and it is affordable even to an old couple in retirement.
Hey Barb! Thanks for your feedback, we like this new feature too! It makes it so easy to see what the cheapest shipping option is for each specific order! We strive to make our website straightforward and simple to use.
I only use the red clover blossom in my tinctures. Unfortunately, I spent big money & many hours digging out the trash in this purchase including grass, wheat, leaves, stems, etc. But I big disappointment - bag wasn't vacuum sealed, the clover did not smell or look fresh. Will not order again.
Easy to find the product I was searching for. This season we have none in our area. Thanks!
