Viva Piquante Spice Mix Review
Product of Canada
Ingredients:
Special Note: As far as I am aware this product is exclusive to Costco for about $20.00. It was purchased at a Costco in Canada.
Packaging: Huge, Monumental, Colourful, Powerful. Standing 18” tall and weighing 300g (10.6oz) this is a beast of a spice shaker.
First impression: Even if this was filled with coloured sand it would still demand respect. There are your grand pepper mills and then there is this. A perfect blend of salt, spices and
Aroma: Fresh, Attentive
Appearance: Bright, Colourful!
Initial taste and Conclusion: We have had this spice mill for about a year now and it has accompanied almost every dish. From meat dishes, to soups, to pasta, I have never come across a spice mix that can enhance just about everything. In terms of heat it is quite mild, but the savory flavor it adds is grand. Every turn gives you a myriad of flavors that is concise and consistent. The grinder does a magnificent job. If there was one complaint it would be to have a cap that covers the grinding end so you don’t end up with spice particles all over the counter after you use it.
Keep your eye out for this little (big) gem.

Hi there .. we received the Viva Piquante spice mix as a gift last year and, like you, my husband loves it. Do you know where we can get more? we have tried to locate the manufaturer but it looks like they only sell wholesale — any information you can provide would be terrific!
Thanks so much!

As fas as I know you can only get it at Costco. And it was purchased in Canada. Try and get in touch with Costco and see if they can track it down for you. Good Luck!
I saw this at Costco in LI, NY last year. unfortunately i did not buy when I saw it and it was gone when I went back (Costco is like that, in one day then gone forever)
