★★★★★ E.
I have returned for this soap many times, and for good reason. As a practicing aromatherapist, I understand the importance of natural, skin-loving ingredients, and this red clay soap truly delivers. The rich mineral content of red clay gently purifies and revitalizes the skin, making it a fantastic…

★★★★★ T.Ó.Good soap
The soap lathers up well with nice creamy foam and cleans well. In my area the water is very hard and filled with limescale and the soap had no problem lathering up and cleaned well in these conditions. It is fantastic quality soap. The soap came from the supplier wrapped in tissue paper and it was…

★★★★★ D.P.Excellent quality and service.
I've been using this product for a couple of years now and have always found the quality to be excellent. I also find it lasts well. The smell (perfume) is natural and not at all synthetic. I've also found that the product is great for itchy skin and I can tell the difference when I forget to order…

★★★★★ V.B.They work well when used correctly
These are unscented reeds for oil diffusers. You add them to diffusers that hold scented oil; the scent travels up the reeds and throughout the room. I have no idea why the other person thought they could put these in just water and expect them to smell; you need diffuser oil in order for these to…

★★★★★ V.M.Good quality crystal chips!
Crystal chips themselves are lovely, a variety of sizes and good quality. They come in a thick cotton bag, and inside a large plastic bauble. There were more than I was expecting, which is great. Half of the cotton bag is filled. I've seen all sorts of prices for these, I would have liked it to be…

★★★★★ M.Lemon Grass
I absolutely LOVE the smell of lemon grass and these have not disappointed. I have one burning in my room and I'm sat in the garden but can still smell the lovely fragrance out here. They do burn for 30 odd minutes as described. I've bought some that burn down within minutes of lighting, so these…

★★★★★ V.B.A lot of tiny (less than 7-8mm) beads on the strand
The beads are very nice but many (more than half) of them were tiny and some of them couldn't be threaded because the hole was also smaller than described. I ordered them twice and the second one was slightly worse. However they're still very beautiful beads and as long as the smaller size didn't…

Amazing fragrance and indeed this soap feels like it peels and washes all the dead skincells, dirt and whatever extra is on your skin... I just had a 100 degrees warm and very moist Sauna. My skin feels a bit dry after a good scrub with this soap, so I recommend to use moituriser. Leaves a gentle…

★★★★★ D.Great scent, sadly, doesn't last more than 10 mins.
I got a backflow waterfall burner and was really pleased when I found Nag Champa cones to use with it. (These are specific backflow cones, normal cones will not work as I discovered at my expense) Nag Champa is my all time favourite scent, it has a great energy vibration and calms any person and…

You can still see some of the pencil marks from the engraving, but they add some good feeling to the cutter. The cutter itself, could be a bit more polished and cleaner on the surface, but hey, who's looking when you have your beautifull soap on it?! This is really good for markets and shops and…

About this product
Botanical profile
Fennel, Foeniculum vulgare, is a tall, feathery perennial in the carrot family, native to the Mediterranean basin and cultivated across North Africa and the Middle East for centuries. The seeds are technically small dry fruits, harvested from the plant's umbrella-shaped flower heads once they ripen and dry on the stem. Whole seeds retain their volatile oils far longer than ground fennel, releasing their aroma most fully when lightly toasted, crushed, or steeped in hot water.
Culinary and infusion use
Fennel seed is one of the most versatile spices in a kitchen. In Italian cooking it is pressed into finocchiona salami and scattered through pork roasts; in Indian cuisine it appears in panch phoron (the five-spice blend) and as a post-meal digestive nibble. Scandinavian bakers fold it into rye bread and crispbreads, and across the Middle East it seasons flatbreads and spiced rice dishes.
As a tisane, whole fennel seeds steeped in just-boiled water produce a pale golden infusion with a gentle, clean warmth, a traditional preparation across Mediterranean and Arab households. The seeds can be lightly bruised before steeping to draw out more of their character.
Quality and quantity
This pack contains one kilogram of whole, unground seeds, enough to last a committed cook a good while, or to blend and portion into smaller jars for gifting. Whole seeds hold their aroma and flavour considerably longer than pre-ground fennel, making bulk buying a practical choice for anyone who uses the spice regularly.
Provenance
These seeds are grown in Egypt, where the Nile Delta's fertile soils and dry harvest conditions have made the country one of the world's principal fennel producers. Egyptian fennel is widely regarded for its clean, consistent aroma, a result of the long, warm growing season and low humidity at harvest time.
Storage
Keep in an airtight container, away from direct light and heat. Whole seeds stored this way will hold their character for well over a year. Avoid grinding more than you need at once, as ground fennel loses its brightness quickly.
Size and contents
One kilogram of whole Egyptian fennel seeds. Supplied loose; decant into your preferred storage jar on arrival.
A considered gift
A thoughtful choice for a keen cook, a tea enthusiast, or anyone building a serious spice collection. Pairs well with other botanicals for a homemade blend or a curated pantry gift.
