This is what real spices taste like

Most spices on store shelves are years old by the time you buy them.
Ours aren’t.

We are a woman-owned business rooted in direct partnerships with small-scale farmers across India. We bring you spices at their freshest and most flavorful—harvested at peak season and delivered the same year, never years later—so you can experience their full potency.

By paying our farmers up to 5× the fair-trade rate and supporting regenerative growing practices, we’re creating a food system that honors the people who grow our spices, is better for our land, and absolutely delicious in your kitchen.

WELCOME TO A NEW SPICE EXPERIENCE.

  • From a Chef

    This turmeric is incredibly fresh — the aroma and essential oils far surpass any turmeric I’ve cooked with.

  • From a Home Cook

    The most aromatic and flavorful cumin I've ever used! It reminds of my grandmother's cooking.

  • From a Chilli Enthusiast

    Any store-bought chilli tastes lackluster now. This one is bright, complex, and truly spectacular.

  • From a Fennel Convert

    10/10! I opened the jar and finally understood what fennel is supposed to be. It has layers of flavors.

Hi! I'm Dharti. Nice to meet you. Let me tell you a little bit about the beginnings of Koshna.

Koshna has taken three long years to come to life (trust me it has not been an easy road). It was born out of my deep-rooted love for the vibrant flavors of India I grew up with. Every year, my mother would bring freshly ground, incredibly fragrant spices from India. But due to the global Covid lockdowns, she could not travel here and I was left without my beloved spices. To substitute, I tried countless spice brands, but none came close to the freshness and flavor that had become an integral part of my culinary experience. To be honest, cumin tasted like cardboard (no disrespect intended to other spice brands). This is when the seed of Koshna was planted. Throughout my life, I’ve been fortunate to enjoy the freshest cumin possible. It would come straight from my grandfather’s farm every year, at the first harvest. I hold incredibly high standards when it comes to the freshness and flavor of my spices.

with love and gratitude, dharti
