STORY:

In a sea of wooden spice mills, the Cast Iron Pepper and Spice Mill stands apart. Hand-poured and hand-finished, it’s crafted by the experts at Skeppshult, a Swedish foundry producing heirloom-quality cast iron housewares for more than 100 years. The mill’s hefty weight and pyramid-shaped grinding surfaces turn whole spices into fragrant flavor in short order. Another benefit of that heft: the mill won’t easily be tipped over by accident. Topped with a handsome walnut lid that conceals a compartment for storing whole spices before grinding.
