A staple of Levantine kitchens and Israeli tables alike, this traditional za’atar blend is vibrant, earthy, and aromatic – designed for the way Israelis actually eat it: mixed with olive oil and scooped up with warm bread.
Made by The Spicy Way, a family-run herb farm located in the rolling meadows between Bethlehem of Galilee and Nazareth, this za’atar reflects over 70 years of agricultural expertise. Grown, harvested, and blended on-site, each ingredient is hand selected for its exceptional quality and flavor.
The recipe combines hyssop (Majorana Syriaca Labiatae), brown sesame seeds, sumac, salt, canola oil, and olive oil – resulting in a balanced mix of nutty, citrusy, and herbal notes with a satisfying depth. This za’atar is straight from the Galilee, grounded in tradition, and ready to elevate everything from hummus to roast chicken. Sprinkle it generously – this spice from the Holy Land is history that you can taste.
“Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.” – Psalm 51:7

Ground Za’atar Spice Mix
The Zitershpiler family has been growing spice for more than 50 years. Avi Zitershpiler, the owner of the farm, has absorbed the values of agriculture, landscape, nature and man since childhood, growing up and growing spice with his father Zvi, one of the pioneers of the spice industry in Israel.
After his military service in the Faculty of Agriculture and later in Naturoptia, Avi Zitershpiler has been continuously growing, processing, producing and marketing spices and herbs in Israel and around the world.
