He loved it! The grinder is AMAZING! Thank you again for an exquisite product!
It’s the travel companion I’ve been looking for!
Very hard to eat not enjoyable at all. Plus the price for product not the best
Hi, Joe. Thank you for giving my product a try — I’m really sorry to hear it didn’t meet your expectations.
I work hard to create something people genuinely enjoy, and I'd love to better understand what didn’t work for you. Was it the heat level, the flavor, or something else? I do offer a much hotter option — the No. 11 — if you were hoping for something with more intensity.
In any case, I want you to be happy with your experience. If you'd prefer, I’m happy to send you something different to try, or issue a full refund — just let me know what you'd like.
Sincerely,

I bought this for my husband, who is always wanting to add extra heat to everything, and he absolutely loves it! Such a great, fun product!
Thank you for letting SpiceQuest join your husband’s heat-seeking adventures — hearing that the grinder’s become his new favorite toy makes my day! Fabio/Founder
The Big Momna Mustard grinder kit is just as described, very hot, very flavorful. I’ve enjoyed it immensely. Thank you SpiceQuest
I’m glad Big Mustard Mama is delivering the bold heat — and bright mustard zing — you were hoping for. Thanks for welcoming her into your kitchen and sharing the love. And most importantly, thank YOU for growing this unbelievable pepper :). Fabio/Founder
Absolutely Blown away !!! Very high quality !!!! Highly Recommended.
A+++
Huge fan of this product which makes a fantastic gift. The production quality is excellent. just a lot of fun for people to try out different spicy peppers. As a gift, it’s unusual in a good way, and really is something that people use for quite a while after receiving.
Thank you for the warm words—and for all the thoughtful feedback you’ve shared since day one. Many of the little refinements came straight from your suggestions, and I’m genuinely grateful.
Knowing the kit has become your go‑to “unexpected, yet actually‑used” gift is exactly the kind of validation that keeps me hunting for new peppers and fine‑tuning the design. If you spot anything else I could improve—or just want a sneak taste of the next wild varietal I’m testing—please give me a shout.
Thanks again for being both an early supporter and an honest critic. You’ve helped make SpiceQuest better for everyone.

in all it is very good. Should have gone for the number 11 as it was not as hot as I was expecting it to be. Please do not get me wrong as if you load it up (7-10 pushes) it gets to a very spicy level.
Aw, man. That's hard to hear. I hope you at least loved the flavors. Perhaps once you get the no. 11 in your hands you can let me know whether we lived up to your expectations. Thank you for giving us a chance. Fabio/Founder
I bought this for the bar and the guys are already on the 11. They are asking if you guys plan on making anything hotter. Please keep me posted. Great product by the way..
First off — THANK YOU! What bar??? Would love to come visit if possible. Yes, we're always working on hotter — but we don't want to kill anyone either, you know. Bad for business :). - Fabio, Founder/Chief Spiceologist
Definitely brings the heat
Thanks, Timothy! We’re glad No. 11 delivered the heat — it's definitely not for the faint of heart. Appreciate you giving it a go. Just try not to go overboard! :)
The perfect addition to my cooking, a fantastic presentation and easy way to spice up any meal , not to mention how easy it works and how great it is to bring it with you when eating out , making any meal perfect with that extra kick, the only bad thing is that I can only bring one at a time . I’m so happy I got my kit
Thank you, Alejandro — your note made our day. We love hearing that the kit’s become a go-to part of your meals, whether at home or out and about. And we hear you on only being able to bring one at a time… we have been working on a travel holster... but right now, they are either too bulky, or too ugly. :(.
Wife loves the flavors of 4,5 and 6, kids wish we had all 10. We might be back for more
Wait, and what about you?? :). Regardless, we can't wait to have you back! My kids love the whole set — and they challenge their friends when they come over to see 'what number they can make it to' They even made it to the no. 11!! But shortly after that all the kids jumped in the pool and srtarted drinking the water-- UGH. Thank you for the feedback. Happy to hear your whole family is enjoying it.
My customers love it .They look forward to try a New one
Customers??? Who are you sharing it with? Would love to send you some more, along with some discount codes, if you're sharing it with others. Let me klnow — and thank you for the feedback!

Works great with my Celtic salt
Hi Joseph —
Love hearing that it works well with your Celtic salt! While we originally designed the grinder for chili flakes, it’s great to know it’s earning its place at the table in other ways too. Thanks for the feedback — it helps us keep pushing for quality and versatility in everything we make.... but do give our spices a chance someday :)
Fabio
This set is wonderful. You got the heat you want at the convenience of a dispenser and a mill I mail my salt. I mail my peppers. I have in the past grow my hot peppers and just crushed them but this is awesome. I also got the bonus number 11 I’ll take that in its little box to a restaurant with me to season up a taco or breakfast gravy or whatever I just love this set and I will be contacting you soon for refills. Thanks for coming up with this and thank you for a good product.
Jeff —
This might be one of the most satisfying reviews we’ve ever received. From growing your own peppers to now taking “number 11” with you to spice up restaurant meals — that’s the kind of passion we love. Thank you for embracing the full experience. We’re honored to be a part of your daily heat ritual, and we’ll be ready when it’s time for a refill. Keep in mind, we do sell a travel case that's has a few less sharp edges for when you put things in your pocket :)
Stay spicy,
Fabio
Very sturdy. I purchased the fill your own grinders. Way more durable than I expected. Works great and reasonably priced. I will definitely order more! Thank you!
Hi Rose —
Thank you so much for the kind words! We put a lot of thought into the design of these grinders, so hearing that they exceeded your expectations means a lot. The fact that you went with the fill-your-own version and still found them sturdy and well-priced is exactly what we hoped for. Can’t wait to get more in your hands when you’re ready — and if you ever want to explore some pre-filled options too, we’ve got some fun ones lined up.
Sincerely,
Fabio
I use it everyday, It is a excellent variety,
A 10 out of 10.
I wish the grinders were a little bit longer, but very happy with purchase.
Thank you so much for the kind words — we’re honored to be part of your daily cooking routine, and thrilled to hear you’re loving the variety. A 10 out of 10 means the world to us!
Totally hear you on the grinder size. The compact design was intentional — it fits comfortably in your hand, keeps the spices fresh longer, and makes it easy to carry in our kits with 5 to 10 different peppers. But if you're looking for something bigger, we do have a larger option called The Beast — same push-button mechanism, just more capacity.
Appreciate the honest feedback and your support.
Sincerely,
Fabio
What can I say but wow this is the best product ever the levels of heat are perfect for each level of heat it's not just blow your face off heat there's flavors of each kind of pepper as well, the acrylic base is just another level of care an thought that went into this they could have just given me the spice grinders but they didn't they put the care into giving it a base an that care is next level. When I received my package the care that went into the packaging was just another level of care that went into this product it showed the level of passion and professionalism to make a good product I can go on an on about how much I love this product and will certainly be buying more but do yourself a favor and buy yourself something off SpiceQuest an see for yourself how impressed an happy of a customer you can be
Wow. This truly stopped me in my tracks.
Thank you—not just for the kind words, but for seeing the care that went into this. You noticed the details most people might overlook: the way the heat levels are balanced with flavor, the feel of the acrylic base, the way everything is packaged. I can’t tell you how much that means to me.
I didn’t want to create just another spice kit. I wanted to build something that felt personal, intentional—something that showed respect for the peppers, the growers, and the people who would use it. Your words make me feel like that intention landed.
I poured a lot into this. Reading your review… it reminds me why.
Thank you for taking the time to write this. I’m so glad SpiceQuest found its way to you.

I like the slim design. It does not take up much space on my counter. It keeps all my spices in order and easily
accessible.
Thank you so much! We're also working on a novel carousel design display station — something that can sit at the table. Will let you know when we release it.
Love this set! Exactly as described!
Glad it hit the mark! Appreciate you taking the time to share that.
the heat level is prefect, the brain strain is intense, but not spicy. works great for adding the right amount of heat to a meal. I love to put these on sushi, sometimes combining different ones for a unique experience each bit.
Thank you! That’s such a creative way to enjoy them — love the sushi combo idea. A friend of mine tried them on the cucumber salad at a Japanese restaurant recently and he said it was perfect (he was using the limited edition 7 pot BB, which is on a similar heat scale as the brain strain).
I use it for bonito flakes and it works great to get a consistent amount
Appreciate that! Love hearing it's working great for bonito flakes — very cool use.
It’s a must have if you like flavor & heat. Very well crafted grinders .
Thanks so much — thrilled you're enjoying the heat and craftsmanship! Means a lot.
