Our Spice Center in Tumacacori,
Arizona is located in the heart of the historic Santa Cruz
Valley. The Mission of San Jose de Tumacacori was
founded first by the Jesuits in the 1690's. The church, which
still stands today, was built in the early 1800's. The Presidio
of San Ignacio de Tubac, the oldest of 3 Spanish military
outposts, was established here after an Indian rebellion in
1751. By the late 1800's the valley was dotted with ranches, and
mining camps, dominated by dauntless cattlemen and prospectors.
Santa Cruz Chili & Spice Company is both a
manufacturer and retailer of fine chili products. At our
Spice Center in Tumacacori, Arizona we sell, along with Santa
Cruz Products, a wide variety of gourmet Southwestern foods,
cookbooks and a large selection of spices and herbs. We also
have a quaint Western Museum documenting the rich
history of the area. |

| This is the home of the
Santa Cruz Chili & Spice Company.
The business is small. It is family-owned. It is a
source of pride. The chili products reflect the unique
mixture of Mexican and Western cultures that are so much a part
of the Santa Cruz Valley. The flavors are pure and
authentic. They represent the valley's rich heritage.
You are invited to experience a part of the heritage; to share
in its traditions. Bienvenidos. |
