The Grinder & Travel Case Are Aces!

I'm not new to Capsaicin, but really like the ease of taking my pepper of choice along where ever I go. The Habanero provides enough heat to assuage my gustatory pyromaniac, but isn't so wild that it puts off the friends that I share it with when dining with them.

Thanks, Richard — this made my day. Love hearing that No. 4 hits that sweet spot for you: bold enough to light things up, but still friendly enough to pass around the table. Also glad to hear the grinder and travel case are keeping up with your capsaicin adventures! I bring mine everywhere too :) Fabio/Founder

Great taste great product

Good product I recommend great taste

Thank you! A lot of people just obsess about heat, and commend us for the way our kits and grinders help titrate the SHU -- but we put an equal amount of care and curation into selecting peppers for the flavor experience, so this feedback means a great deal to me. Fabio/Founder

Wish I had known about this sooner! It's perfect!

Thank you! We wish you had as well. But you have the power to prevent this from happening to others -- spread the word :) Fabio/Founder

It Works With So Many Varieties Of Food

I've always enjoyed capsaicin with a variety of foods, but this little grinder and it's travel bag are a huge hit with me, as I am able to spice my meals up the way I like them and the Pequin goes so nicely with the foods I most enjoy. AND... it provides a nice little kick.

Love hearing this — especially about the Pequin. It’s such a sneaky-good pepper. Grateful you’re enjoying the freedom to dial in your heat wherever you go. Thanks for taking us along for the ride. Fabio/Founder

Habanero

Grinder is quality material. Produces a nice even light grind, not too heavy. Habanero pepper is true to the pepper. Nice bold flavor.

Nailed it — that’s exactly what we’re going for. Bold flavor, clean grind, and nothing watered down. Thanks for the kind words.

We love it!

This is a quality product and we are very excited about owning it and making it a central part of our kitchen. Highly recommend.

Love hearing that — it’s exactly why I started SpiceQuest. Thanks for making it part of your kitchen and your story.

Made of the utmost quality

SpiceQuest spice grinders are so innovative and unique that I just had to try them for myself. After using them to add the perfect amount of spice and flavor to a few meals now, I must say they have lived up to my expectations and then some. You can’t go wrong with SpiceQuest. AND, on top of that the customer service is beyond amazing and they even threw in a free grinder for me as well. Unbeatable!

Wow — this made my day. Truly. Thank you for the kind words, and for giving SpiceQuest a shot. I’m so glad the experience delivered — spice, service, and all. Hope that bonus grinder brings some extra joy to the table. 🙏

Simply Amazing

Incredible grinder design lets you accurately control the amount of heat you want to deliver! Level of spice is phenomenal for those looking for something out of the norm. Will definitely be returning for more!

Thank you — that means a lot. Sounds like you're exactly the kind of person we built this for. When you're ready for more, let me know what stood out most and I’ll personally point you toward something new to explore.
Sincerely,
Fabio / Founder

Packs a big punch

As someone who loves spice, I was skeptical. But these little grinders pack a big punch.

That’s exactly what we hoped you’d say. We built these grinders to prove that size doesn’t limit impact — it’s all about potency and precision. Thanks for giving it a shot even with some initial doubt — and for recognizing the punch we packed into each click. ️

The Chocolate Kit
Ronald ocallaghan
Love the flavor, numbers are meaningless

I would have have it 5 stars if instead of 1,2 3, it reflected a general heat level.

Thanks so much for the feedback — and for calling out both what you liked and what you wished was different.

To clarify: the numbers (1, 2, 3) do reflect increasing heat levels, based on lab-tested Scoville ratings. We use this system across all our kits — Pro, Asian, Chocolate, etc. That said, you're absolutely right that the differences in heat across the chocolate varietals are more subtle than in the core kit. So while the numbering is consistent with our overall approach, it may not have been the clearest or most useful framework for this particular trio.

I’m taking your note to heart and are actively considering including Scoville units in future releases to make the experience more intuitive.

I’m sorry the current system left you underwhelmed, but I’m grateful you took the time to share your thoughts — it helps me improve and make the product better.

Sincerely,

Great range of heat and the dispenser insure you don’t over do

Thank you. Choice and control were paramount considerations when we were developing SpiceQuest. So glad to delivers on that for you. Fabio/Founder

Awesome!

These things are super solid quality and are full of heat!!

Thank you so much. We worked real hard to make sure the grinders were well-designed and made of quality material. Unfortunately photos don't quite convey that and unless someone actually holds and uses them, it's hard to appreciate. So I really appreciate that you took the time to share that.

Worth every penny!

Thank you! We think so too :) please make sure you remember to periodically tighten the cap as the micro vibrations from movement can cause it to slowly unscrew.

Bigger size - Bigger punch!

What's better than a SpiceQuest Habanero grinder?? A bigger grinder in a travel case!!! I actually carry it in my Jeep-- never know when and where you might need to kick things up a notch!! When it is empty, I will definitely refill it, but probably step up to a hotter spice.

Love it! 🔥 A 'Jeep-ready' spice upgrade feels like the beginning of a new ad campaign :) That bigger grinder in the case was made for moments just like this. BTW, when you're ready to step it up, we've got some serious heat waiting — maybe no. 9 or even the infamous no. 11—those come with cases too! Respect for traveling prepared. ️

10 grinder spice set

I could not be happier, mild to wild and being able to control so easy, great product and customer service, I recommend this for anyone that likes a little spice in their life. I give it 5 stars, thanks SpiceQuest

Thank you so much — this made my day. You totally got the spirit of what we were trying to build: real variety, real control, real flavor. From mild to wild, all at your fingertips. Appreciate you taking the time to share this — and for spreading the word. Stay spicy 🔥

Excellent addition to your meal

Absolutely love the Trinidad scorpion. The grinder is of very high quality and adds the perfect amount of heat to any meal. Now I just need a holster to carry this with me all the time.

Thank you for sharing this! The 7 (Trinidad) is an under-appreciated spice,and deserves more ways to love! Fabio/Founder

Delicious, nice heat, and convenient

Thank you! We worked real hard to bring the heat without compromising flavor — so really glad to hear you felt that.

I’ve sampled every one. Flavors for all 11 were phenomenal! Grinders worked great.

THANK YOU SO MUCH! What was your second favorite? Have you tried the limited editions? Fabio/Founder

Works great

Must have travel accessory!

Appreciate that! We made the case because grinders kept getting lost in backpacks and glove boxes. Glad it's doing the job!
— Fabio, Founder, SpiceQuest

Great idea and flavors. Easy to stick in my purse and spice up food at restaurants.

Love hearing this! That’s exactly what we hoped for — something small enough to carry, but bold enough to make any meal your own. Thanks for taking us along on your flavor adventures. 🌶️
