Nothing grown in the garden gets flattened into sameness. Every blend keeps its fragrance, colour and character.
Very hot heritage chillies from several continents, crossed and selected over more than ten years. Now brought together in one grinder. Clear, deep and remarkably balanced.
Sunshine, herbs, warm bread.
Strong oregano from our own garden sits at the heart of this oriental spice blend. Herbal, warm and deeply fragrant.

Harvested in our own garden and gently dried in the sun. Coarse leaves, a full fragrance and none of the dusty blandness.

Grown by Tamaki in Sissach on the first pepper plantation in Switzerland and Europe. Red husks, a bright fragrance and that unmistakable buzz that doesn't just make food hotter. It wakes it up.
Enquire about this productEvery plant carries its own nature within. At Tamaki, the aim is not to mask these natural qualities, but to make them visible, fragrant and tasteable.
From single base plants we create pure specialities or harmonious compositions. Some products remain deliberately pure. Others are combined so that a new whole emerges: complex, but not complicated. Simple, but never ordinary.
The goal is always the same: an aroma that stays with you. One that recalls distant journeys, warm earth, markets full of spices — a taste of the Arabian Nights.
Tamaki was born from a deep passion for plants — from the desire to discover, cultivate and bring rare, robust and aromatic crops to life in Switzerland in a natural way.
Over the years, special plants from around the world have been collected, observed, trialled and refined. Not every plant suits our climate, not every variety convinces on the palate. That is precisely why every product in the range is the result of experience, patience and careful selection.
Tamaki is not a mass producer. Tamaki is a place for speciality crops, experiments, craftsmanship and flavour.
Our products are made from rare, carefully selected plants. Many crops are still being established and are available only seasonally or in small quantities.

Rarity · Trial This year a first trial — not yet for sale. The small harvest goes as a gift to our best customers and friends.
Every batch is limited. Every harvest is different. Every season brings new nuances.
Not industrially standardised. But alive.
A good product does not begin in the packaging. It begins in the soil.
Plants are grown close to nature, carefully harvested and especially gently dried or processed — so that aromas, fragrances, colours and flavours are preserved as unaltered as possible.

Gentle sun-drying Nothing should be louder than the plant itself.
With the new plant steam distillery, Tamaki expands its possibilities. From selected aromatic and medicinal plants — such as clary sage — we create high-quality plant aroma oils and hydrosols.
Gentle steam distillation captures fine fragrance and plant compounds that open up a new dimension for the range: from cultivating rare speciality crops towards a small Swiss manufacture for natural aromas, plant essences and distinctive fragrance products.
Here too the same holds true: small quantities, careful selection, genuine quality.
Tamaki stands for clear origin and honest declaration. So you know exactly what lies in your hands.
No hidden origin. No fine words without substance. Just quality you can trace.
Tamaki products are made independently, in small quantities and without agricultural direct payments or subsidies. The price reflects the real effort involved.
With every purchase you directly support the building of rare speciality crops, independent Swiss agriculture and a project that stands out not through volume, but through quality.
A Tamaki product must convince because it is good. Not because it was artificially made cheap.
Tamaki is for everyone who seeks more than standard spices off the shelf — and who wants not merely to consume plants, but to experience them.
A hint of chilli. A distinctive fragrance. A rare fruit. Sometimes a dish needs only a small impulse to become unforgettable.
Tamaki is also a living network for rare plants and new cultures. On request, and subject to availability, plant material, seedlings or cuttings are available — swaps and exchanges expressly welcome, especially for rare, robust or aromatically exciting plants, fruits and berries.
Are you a farmer, gardener, restaurateur, producer, creative company or private individual with an interest in special plants? Possibilities include joint speciality crops, new product ideas, trials, consulting, cultivation concepts or creative partnerships around aroma, spices, fruits and natural products.
The focus is on long-term, sustainable and innovative ideas. Anyone who wants to build something special is warmly invited to get in touch.
Get in touchTamaki brings the best of plant, soil, craft and experience into one natural cycle. What emerges should not feel artificial, not loud, not arbitrary — but real. A product should pass on the power of the plant: the fragrance, the flavour, the colour, the warmth, the memory.
Tamaki — Swiss natural aromas in harmony.
