I'm dipping my toes into herbal teas and ordered some essentials from Monterey Bay. I thought everything was reasonably priced and what I received appears to be quality. Shipping was pretty fast. I will definitely be placing more orders!

Excellent product
May 4, 2025

Superior tea for an excellent price. Was a bit disappointed, as I am diabetic, that I couldn't find out how much sugar is in the fruit flavored black teas. Was told by someone in the company that is proprietary information. Felt a little slighted.

Consistent high quality
May 3, 2025

I have been buying herbs and spices from here for years now. I am a military spouse and love cooking. The accessibility of these spices around the US is by far the best. Not the mentioned the consistent high quality of ingredients, care, and shipping. I have ordered teas and spice blends that I have also shared with family which have then inspired them to order as well! Thank you!

I have chickens and use the herbs in the coop and nest boxes to help repel insects etc. Anytime animals are involved, every little bit of pleasant aroma HELPS!

Old customers

It's a bit offputting when companies entice new buyers with discounts, but they disregard their current customers and don't offer them the samecourtesy.
