The Spice & Tea Exchange at OWA
The Spice & Tea Exchange®, a specialty retail store offering an extensive selection of spices and exclusive hand-mixed blends, naturally-flavored sugars, salts and exotic teas from around the world, has announced that its Foley store has opened in Downtown OWA – the admission-free dining, shopping and entertainment district of the 520-acre OWA resort.
“Guests are going to love exploring the collection of spices from around the world provided by The Spice & Tea Exchange,” said Greg Rawls, OWA’s Director of Business Development. “We are also very excited to announce this location will have an international tea bar where guests can sample exotic teas from around the world.”
Exemplifying the brand’s mission of “Creating & Sharing the Experience of a More Flavorful Life,” Peter and Tammy Heim, and their daughters, Anna and Jensen, are here to inspire a more flavorful lifestyle at home by providing guests with quality products at affordable prices.
“The Spice & Tea Exchange is an experience-based store,” said Anna Heim. “Guests are provided opportunities for hands-on interaction with our quality spices, blends, and teas. They can open the jars and smell, which invokes all of their senses, while watching our Spice Masters create hand-mixed blends right before their eyes.”
Guests who visit the shop will have an abundance of products to choose from, with more than 140 spices, over 85 hand-mixed seasoning blends, 17 naturally-flavored sugars, 25 salts from around the world, and more than 45 exotic teas. The Spice & Tea Exchange also offers recipes and accessories to complement the spice and tea selections.
“It doesn’t matter if you are an advanced cook, a beginner, new to teas or a loose leaf enthusiast,” Jensen Heim states. “Our knowledgeable and trained team members can assist with your needs.”
The Heims have two other The Spice and Tea Exchange locations in New Orleans, LA and Galveston, TX. They have dedicated the past two years to educating themselves and visitors on quality ingredients and herbal remedies, honing in on their ability to assist in one’s need for better tasting and better-for-you foods.
Downtown OWA’s new spice shop also has gifting abilities! From stocking stuffers, to gift baskets, to wedding favors, The Spice and Tea Exchange has customizable gifts for any occasion, and everyone on your list.
