Organic spices not only taste great, but have multi-fold benefits. By purchasing organic products, you are supporting sutainable agriculture that enriches the soil and the earth, instead of contaminating it with harsh chemicals. You are preserving the beauty of the earth for future generations. And you are keeping harmful toxins from chemical pesticides and fertilizers out of your body.

A bit about coriander, from the Simply Organic website:

Warm and citrusy at the same time, coriander seed is enjoyed in curries and chili, cookies and cakes. A sister to cilantro--both come from the same plant--coriander seed has a lovely, fragrant aroma once ripened, while cilantro is often described as foetid.

I love the bottles from Simply Organic. They are glass, beautifully shaped, have a metal lid, and have the name of the spice printed on top of the lid to make it easier to find your spices when looking from above (the label on the lid is great for my lazy susan).

The affordability of organic products has come a long way. Simply Organics spices are extremely price-competitive for such a high-quality item. I was comparing prices recently at a grocery store and was pleased to discover that Simply Organics is often just as cheap, if not cheaper, than McCormick spices (which are not organic).
