Two of the flavors, Chipotle Cinnamon and Smoky Chile, are inspired by Mexican cuisine which has seen a rise in popularity in recent years. Mild Sriracha and Coriander Lime draw their inspiration from the ex- otic flavors of Thailand. Smoky Turmeric and Tandoori are in- spired by the warm aromatic fla- vors of Indian cuisine. Finally, Spicy Garlic draws inspiration from harissa, a popular North African condiment. The rubs are a natural fit for the upcoming grilling season, but The Spice Hunter has provided usage suggestions to edu- cate consumers on how to use these rubs year-round. For example, the Mild Sriracha blend makes a delicious dip and the Chipotle Cinnamon pairs perfectly with roasted sweet potatoes. The rubs are rated by level of spiciness and provide a nice range for adventurous and sensitive palates alike. The Spice Hunter www.spicehunter.com
