Always good service & delivery. The one time there was an order mix-up, they solved it with one call and got me the right order in just 2 days.
Excellent quality, variety and service 10 out of 10!
I have been shopping with Herb Co for the last couple of years and I have yet to be disappointed. Very happy with the organic selection and every product that I have purchased so far. No complaints
Descriptions of horsetail were spot-on. Product was just as described when I received it. Used for oil infusion - topical, not culinary.
Easy to order and products explained well. Will respond more when I receive and use product
The delivery was quick. I drink a lot of hibiscus tea - I use about a pound of hibiscus leaves every month. I also have been using a lot of dried ginger in my tea and I get that from them as well. Even after paying for shipping you can save a lot over any other supplier of these products (e.g. Amazon).

I have used this company for years. Excellent service with fast shipping. The selection of herbs is amazing. I buy in bulk and it saves me lots of money each year
Fast shipping and excellent customer service. Herbs are also fresh and best prices around
I have ordered from a few herbal supply stores and this one is by far my favorite. I will always source my loose leaf herbs here for as long as they are available. The quality is always amazing, and the shipping/delivery is very fast! I have never been disappointed, and I have recommended this company to a few friends that are interested in buying herbs in bulk.
I chose Monterey Bay after searching multiple options and finding their prices to be the best. I've found the quality and variety to be excellent.
I received everything I ordered undamaged. Prices are very good compared to the place I use to purchase herbs from. I cannot get attest to the quality as everything has not been used yet.
Always a pleasure shopping with Herbco. Inventory is always available and shipping is fast. I'm on the east coast and my orders arrive within 2-3 days.
All these items are gifts for family, so I can't rate them. However, I will say that I'm very impressed w/ Monterey Bay Herb Co. The site is easy to navigate; Always find what I'm looking for and the shipping is very fast.
Working with herbs to make tisanes, pomanders, potpourri, etc. has been something I enjoyed since I was in my 20s here in San Francisco. The old store on Ellis Street that used to be my source for bulk herbs and oils is long gone, but I am happy that I found Monterey Bay Spice Company, which fulfilled my needs entirely and expeditiously. Great service, great packaging, great products!
Monterey Bay is your one stop shop for herbal teas. Very wide selection and very good prices. This will be the only place I shop for tea.
I've been buying from them for a few years. Their herbs have helped me with many of my medical issues, I shop for cooking seasonings, and when I was running my soap business. Prices are great for buying in bulk. Definitely my go to!
Have always had a good experience with Monterey Bay Herb Co... Their products are safe, good, clean, never had to worry about my purchases, ever...
I have found that Monterey Bay Herb Co. Has always had top high quality products... I feel good & safe ordering from them... Been buying from Monterey Bay Spice Co., for quite a while & will keep ordering from them...
Normally I don't buy products when the cost of the product is equal to the cost of shipping⦠Especially when the shipment was only 1 pound in total! I think you get more business if you didn't overcharge your customers shipping cost!
First, your website sucks! I'm frustrated because I just spent about 20 minutes trying to make a purchase. I subscribed and made an account but it wouldn't log me in then I tried to get a link to reset the password and nothing came. So I clicked it about seven or eight times to make it work and then got seven or eight emails to reset my passwordβ¦ So incredibly disorganized! I would not have purchased this stuff without the 15% discount which initially you didn't send me. I am unlimited income and I don't appreciate $13 to send 1 pound worth of herbs! This is way overpriced and I feel bad about buying it because not only did I go through all this trouble but I'm paying a premium as wellπ’π’π’ππππππππππ
Nobody on Oregon understands what real chai is. Real chai does not come premade in a box, it is not in an instant powder form at the local coffee shop. You either buy it and brew it or buy all the ingredients from MB Herb Co. And make it yourself.
When I lived in the Santa Cruz Mountains I enjoyed Up n Atom Chai that I purchased at Herb Room in Santa Cruz. I am also pretty sure Cafe Pergolesi served Up n Atom Chai. I just remembered a few months back I was missing the real chai experience and it took quite a while to locate HerbCo. So glad I did, have been ordering other hard to find spices and chai mix (not Up n Atom)
I have ordered from Monterey Bay Herb Co. Off and on for years. They were recommended by a doctor I had. I have found that I can count on their herbs and prices.
Haven't got to use yet. I don't have anything else to say. They smell great. Better than some of the others I've got. I'll use you again
I had never ordered from MBHC before and had never bought tea online. I have a very low tolerance for caffeine, so I was looking for good quality caffeine free loose leaf teas. I purchased chai, orange cranberry, and hibiscus zest, and I love them all. I also ordered chicory and dandelion root for my morning coffee. The products I received are all high quality, and I will definitely continue to order from MBHC.
