Starting from scratch and building something better
Nut butters can be made with very simple ingredients. Namely the nuts themselves. When it comes to farming them, Big Spoon Roasters has committed to responsible sourcing. Mark Overbay, the founder, was inspired to create his nut butters after spending time in Zimbabwe. There, he learned to honor simple ingredients and bring care into everything he makes. By using trusted, transparent farms and producers that share their philosophy, Big Spoon makes it clear that their relationships with suppliers are honest and long-lasting. Doing this means both the farmers and Big Spoon can help each other by collectively growing the demand for higher quality, sustainable agriculture. Today, Big Spoon makes their delicious nut butters in Durham, NC. They also work with Bee Friendly Certified almond growers in California along with domestic pecan farmers in Georgia, ginger farmers in Fiji, sorghum farmers in Tennessee, and more partners that ensure freshness, flavor, and quality.
Every nut butter jar is fully recyclable, and so are the bar boxes. Plus, the labels are printed with non-toxic ink.

United StatesBreakfast Treat
Absolutely delicious spread for chai lovers! Hard to resist going back for 2nd's!
United StatesBest almond butter ever
I'm obsessed with this almond butter - the flavors of the chai spices are delicious, and it's also got the most wonderful texture, with some bits of almond that aren't completely ground up. I love it.
United StatesA feast for the Senses!!!!
I am in love with all of BIG SPOON nut butters and this Chai Spice conjures up the deepest love I have for 'chai!!' It is spicy, sweet, rich and deep with the complex flavors of Chai. Honestly, it is so unique and divine!
United StatesSugar and Spice and almost everything Nice
Well, I love the flavor - it makes my taste buds bloom with delight! But, I failed to look at the ingredients before purchasing. :-( So, when I received it and saw that sugar is way up on the list of ingredients, second just after the nuts, I was annoyed and disillusioned. Furthermore, the next ingredient is honey (just another form of sugar.) Pure stevia would work just as well here as a substitute for the processed sugar, as there are so many flavors that would overcome any bitterness that the stevia might leave behind. Too many manufacturers and retailers are adding far too much sugar to the products they market and sell to consumers. And the soaring rates of diabetes, arthritis, osteoarthritis, cancer, etc... is a reflection of that abuse. I know you would agree. Unfortunately, I know all to well the politics and the **** influences of the sugar industry so I don't expect any changes in this regard. Ciao!
United StatesIf you like chai, you'll love this spread
Hi! Brenda from the Hive team here. This nut butter is so delicious and flavorful. My favorite breakfast meal is scooping a tablespoon of this in with greek yogurt and a few slices of mango.
