1001 Organic Spicery

4.8(25 reviews)

About

1001 Organic Spicery serves Zanzibar as a gift shop at 1494 Tharia St, Zanzibar, Tanzania. The street sits in the historic core, within easy walking distance of Stone Town, and the shop is one of the stops visitors commonly make while exploring the old town.

Travellers rate the shop 4.8 out of 5 from 25 reviews, a strong score from a small but consistent set of buyers. Reaching it from the island's resort areas is straightforward, since Stone Town is the transport hub from which roads run north to Nungwi and Kendwa and south to Paje, Jambiani and Bwejuu. The shop's own site, 1001organic.com, carries its store information.

Spices, oils and packaged goods fill the shelves, and the range reflects the island's long association with the spice trade. Cloves are grown on both Zanzibar and Pemba, and Pemba produces much of Tanzania's clove crop.

Kiswahili is the main language of both islands, with English widely used in tourism and Arabic loanwords in everyday speech. Islam is the religion of the large majority, and Ramadan, Eid and Friday prayers shape the weekly rhythm. Zanzibar and Pemba have a tropical climate, hot and humid all year with sea breezes along the coast.
