Written by the company

Originals was born in the heart of Sri Lanka, an island recognised worldwide for its spice-growing heritage. For generations, families across Sri Lanka have cultivated spices using knowledge shaped by climate, soil, and tradition. In this environment, spices are not simply ingredients, but part of everyday life, culture, and livelihood. Built on this foundation, Originals was created to share the authentic aroma and character of Ceylon spices with customers in the UK and international markets. Our approach is focused on purity, traceability, and consistency. We produce spices that are natural and free from additives or preservatives, maintaining their original qualities from source to final product. Quality and safety are central to our process. Our spices are tested in ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratories in both Germany and Sri Lanka to ensure they meet recognised standards for purity and food safety. We work closely with local farming communities, supporting responsible sourcing and sustainable agricultural practices, while maintaining clear traceability from harvest to kitchen. Today, Originals continues to connect Sri Lankan spice heritage with modern kitchens, delivering products rooted in origin, care, and trust.

Great quality spices! 100% Authentic!!!

I am really happy with these products from the Originals range. I bought the Ceylon powder, the sticks, and the black pepper, and I can definitely tell they are high quality.

The cinnamon is sweet and mild (real Ceylon!), and the black pepper is very fresh and strong. I like that there are no nasty additives, preservatives, or GMOs. Everything is 100% natural. The packaging is very elegant and good enough to stay fresh. Since the cinnamon is "True Ceylon," it’s much better for daily use than the regular store-bought kind.

Highly recommend these for anyone who wants better flavour in their cooking and baking!

High-quality, authentic products! 💯

I ordered both the Ceylon cinnamon sticks and the black pepper powder, and overall I’m very pleased with the quality. The cinnamon has a fresh aroma and a smooth, natural flavour. The black pepper powder is noticeably strong and adds a lot of flavour, so a smaller amount goes a long way.

Everything arrived well packaged and fresh, and the pricing felt fair for the quality received. I’ve tried several similar products before, and these stood out for their taste and freshness.

I recently bought Sri Lankan pepper and cinnamon from Originals, and I’m genuinely impressed with the quality. The aroma of both products was very strong and fresh, especially the cinnamon – you can immediately tell it’s authentic and not the supermarket kind.

The pepper has a bold flavour and feels very pure. Packaging was neat and kept the spices fresh, and delivery was smooth without any issues.

It’s nice to find a brand that offers real Sri Lankan spices with this level of quality. I’ll definitely be ordering again and would recommend Originals to anyone who appreciates good, natural spices.

All the spices are very authentic and our whole family loved it. My mom actually took few back to India for her daily usage. Thank you for providing such a good product in UK where we couldn't get authentic products from usual stores.
