About The Spice Merchant

My name is Stephen Gollan I am a professional travel photographer & writer. My journey to becoming a spice merchant began back in 2007 after I returned from a lengthy trip abroad through East Africa and India. On this trip I was introduced to a whole new world of spices and found my calling.

Little did i know this was only the beginning of my adventures around the world. As my funds began to shrink I realized i needed to combine my love of travel and cooking and create a business to fund my adventures. So  I took the very spices I had brought home and began selling the blends I learned abroad in local farmers markets.

Working as an English teacher, scuba instructor, chef, travel photographer/writer & of course spice merchant I have had the unique opportunity to visit over 100 countries.

I purchase most of my spices and flavouring enhancements from The Spice Merchant. Very knowledgeable team with a unique approach to curating, packaging and promoting their product, using storytelling to provide inspiration. Their product is fresh and fragrant. Kind of a hidden gem but I'm happy to spread the word how good they are.

They have an amazing stock of spices, including some obscure ingredients that I couldn't find at other specialty stores! The Spice Merchant also has really knowledgeable staff who are happy to tell you all you need to know about their spices - origins, cuisines, dishes, etc. Great spot to visit next time you need culinary inspiration.

Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable and were able to suggest interesting recipes to try their spices with. I made lamb and feta meatballs with their Greek mountain oregano and it was amazing!

Honestly the highest quality spices in Calgary hands down, if you want something special authentic directly from the source this is the place to go every single item is not comparable to any spice in the market. I recommend the Icelandic salt, kerala Cardmom, KamPot Black Pepper and the Yemeni coffee.

Really great store! The owners are really passionate about where they source their spice blends and it seems each one has a unique story behind how it's obtained. The blends are aromatic, fresh, and vibrant. I give a full endorsement for cooking with their spices.

Just wanted to say cooking with herbs & spice is a culinary passion of mine. You capture the art of slow food and regional tastes & culture. I know a great many herbs but spent hours on your website,you've learned from the best! Fantastic job on flavor authenticity, what a wonderful wake up to get thrilled about Spice again. You've taken my spice cubboard to an entirely new level!

I have purchased many different spices and blends from the spice merchant and they have all been absolutely fantastic. Incredibly flavourful and versatile. They are great gifts as well! An absolute must if you are at the crossroads market. I have also ordered several times online and the delivery has always been very quick and Easy. Cannot say enough good things about the spice merchant!
