Sparoza is a Greek family business specializing in spice and herb mixes. The character of each spice, the benefits and aromas of the herbs, the power of the seeds, the spark of the citrus zest help us in choosing the composition of each product. Our motivation, people with fun who are looking for deliciousness and quality of life. We create packets full of freshly ground mixture that generously give flavor and aroma to the food, so that you can enjoy quality, deliciousness and convenience in your daily diet with a simple movement. SPAROZA products do not contain preservatives, additives, fragrances & coloring substances.
Our fragrant preparation plant is located in the center of Athens, at number 53 Mavromichali Street. It was organized, equipped and certified so that each bag of mixture produced in it is always fresh and of high quality.
We select the raw materials of our blends with strict criteria and ensure that each ingredient is treated in the way it deserves: we keep our salt flower in its natural moisture, we choose flowering thyme and rosemary, we use whole ginger root, we produce our own homemade zest from fresh Greek lemons and oranges... We grind each material to a different degree to preserve its flavor and nutritional properties to the maximum.
At SPAROZA we do not see our products as the final stage of our work but as a beginning. We are interested in 'process', 'sharing', 'fermentation'. So we wanted to create a welcoming space, open to everyone. Here you can visit us for tests, smells, discussion, treats, exchange of ideas and knowledge.

The SHAMAN Tea
Looking for strong, exciting flavors, we were inspired by the traditional Indian chai Masala and created SHAMAN Tea, a handcrafted blend of freshly ground spices and quality black tea, with a hot aftertaste!
A cup of SHAMAN Tea offers a unique combination of sensations, relaxing, comforting and refreshing at the same time. Cinnamon, cloves and highly aromatic cardamom give it interesting Indian references, complemented by a charming hotness imparted by ginger, black pepper and chilli. Try it with milk and sugar or plain (instructions on box). It is drunk hot in winter and cold in summer.
