La Route des Épices

A Bulk Shop in Lutry

Travelling without leaving Lutry? La Route des Épices makes it possible. Nestled in the heart of this charming Vaud village, this original shop invites escape with its bewitching aromas. It occupies a former wine cellar near the lake, which has kept its wine press. From the entrance, the smell of spices transports you to faraway lands.

The shop offers an impressive range of carefully selected spices, all displayed in pretty jars. Delicately flavoured salts, rare peppers, spicy flavours with exotic accents: each product tells a story. Tea lovers are not forgotten, with tasty blends that promise comforting breaks.

Spices, a History of Trade

For centuries, spices were sometimes worth more than gold. Pepper, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg travelled from Asia by caravan and by ship. Venice, then the great maritime powers, built their wealth on this trade. The search for new spice routes even drove explorers to cross the oceans. Today, these treasures are easy to find, but their quality varies enormously from one shop to another.

Exquisite Flavours and Homemade Blends

The Promise of La Route des Épices

The shop is not limited to spices. It also offers a range of irresistible treats. Carefully selected chocolate bars, sauces with unique flavours, gourmet oils and vinegars: there is something for every taste. Some homemade blends offer exclusive flavours you will not find anywhere else. A real invitation to explore new tastes or rediscover revisited classics. A unique experience with every discovery.

With this parade of treats, it is impossible to leave empty-handed. The temptations are many and win over the finest gourmets. An address where every visit becomes a journey of flavours. In Lausanne, Saveur PimenThé (in French) shares this same passion for spices from around the world.

La Route des Épices ; A Culinary Journey

This shop has long been talked about. It was time to push open its door. From the entrance, an explosion of aromas transports you elsewhere. Each jar seems to hold a promise, and the urge to discover everything is irresistible. Hard not to open every pot to savour its scents. La Route des Épices is a lovely story between travel and cooking.

A first visit, but surely not the last. A wooden door to step through again with pleasure.
