THE CONTEMPORARY TRADE AND COMMERCE IN SPICES HAS ITS LEGACY OF MANY THOUSANDS OF YEARS. THE WATERS IN THE OCEANS AROUND THE INDIAN PENINSULA AND THE DUSTY LAND ROUTES OF THE NORTH ARE ABOUND WITH TALES OF WARS AND BATTLES WON AND LOST FOR SPICES OF THE HILLS.
THE PHOENICIANS, ARABS, EGYPTIANS, ROMANS, DUTCH, PORTUGUESE AND THE ENGLISH STRUGGLED AND STRUCK AT EACH OTHER TO GET TO THE NECTAR POT OF SPICES. THE FLAVOUR STILL FAVOURS THE TRIP TO INDIA MAKING IT STILL THE DESINATION FOR SPICES
