No spice house near here that I am aware of, though I'd love to visit one. Our hfs has that "smell" to it b/c of all the herbs and spices they stock.
Yes, I absolutely would consider Penzeys/Spice House far superior. Frontier doesn't specialize in spices specifically, they focus on offering a wide array of products. Does Frontier have direct contact with the spice growers or do they go through a middle man(men) for their spices? The Spice House (for example) has almost daily shipments of various spices and contracts with growers directly world-wide. Their entire business is spices, nothing but spices, and they are smaller and family-owned (Penzeys and Spice House are owned by different family members and are different companies, but are related in terms of how they function in procuring and selling spices. I have found their quality to be comparable). With P/TSH there is no long period of sitting in a warehouse where the flavors dissipate.
