About Us
Bringing the Caribbean to the World — One Jar at a Time.
Spice Yaad is more than seasoning — it’s a story, a heritage, and a love letter to the Caribbean kitchen. Founded by Gavin Simpson, a proud Jamaican with a passion for preserving authentic island flavour, Spice Yaad was born from a desire to bring the warmth of “yaad” (home) to kitchens around the world. Rooted in Jamaican tradition but inspired by the richness of the entire Caribbean, every blend carries the spirit, soul, and spice of the islands.
From our island roots to your global table, our mission is simple: bring the Caribbean to the world — through bold flavour, cultural pride, and handcrafted blends that speak of home.
What We Believe In
- Real Ingredients. Real Flavour. Our blends are handcrafted using premium herbs and spices — no fillers, preservatives, or shortcuts.
- Cultural Integrity. From jerk rubs to curry blends, each product reflects authentic Caribbean recipes passed down through generations.
- Homegrown Roots. Global Reach. Whether you’re in Kingston or Kansas, Spice Yaad brings the island to your doorstep.

From the Founder
“Spice Yaad was born out of love — for my culture, my people, and the food that raised me. Every blend we create tells a story. I want our customers to feel like they’re coming home with every bite.”
