As far as I can tell, good customer service as I have not ordered any products for several years. Good company offering my products of choice. Good prices.
I just wanted to say thank you for the incredibly quick shipping and top-notch product quality. Everything arrived faster than expected, and the items exceeded my expectations. It's always a pleasure to support a company that delivers on both speed and excellence. Keep up the great work!
For the most of my herbs, teas, and spices.
Very dependable with a good consistent product line.
I'm exploring Czech and Hungarian cuisine, which frequently call for parsley root. Parsley root has a unique, mellow sweetish flavor that in the US is frequently replaced by parsnip as a substitute. That's like substituting lemons for oranges, they are similar but noticeably different.
The only reason for 3 stars for shopping experience is the shipping being so expensive. I have over 50 herbs i need to order but that shipping cost is keeping me from committing to the order..
There is a fast turnaround with me getting my order which is wonderful. The reason for only 4 stars is because the quality of the herbs is not the greatest.
Speedy delivery on almost all of my orders and website is so easy to use!
I love that they are here in the United States and I don't have to deal with international shipping! I love the are a small family home business. I love that. Their prices are also extremely competitive! They are always professional, courteous and friendly whether on the phone or over email! I love that they are efficient and have top quality products! Their shipments, our whole ways, timely, and accurate!
The quality of the tea and ginger and spices are excellent! The website is so easy to use. I really love this company. Thank you for all of your service!
I can get everything I want at great price! Everything I think I need they have.
Great Teas at fantastic prices. Noticed you no longer have the Eight Herb tea as that was one of the ones I wanted to restock today. I ordered the Get Smart tea instead.
My niece shared this website with us and we are so thankful for the good products especially the turmeric powder and the teas!
Fast delivery and always fresh and beautiful product. I have yet to be disappointed.
I received the herbs exactly as described and was happy with the quality of them. Shipping was timely and packaging was done with care.
Shipping rates a bit high for the amount of time it took to get here.
I have have been ordering herbs from the Monterey Bay Herb Co. For several months. This company is a gem. I trust this company as an authentic source for all of my herb and tea products. I really appreciate this company and this is my only herb company.
I love everything about this company. Great, quality products and fast delivery.
