Since the cost of expedited shipping from Jamaica is very expensive, in many cases, more than the value of the item, I typically ship via the standard postal service, albeit there is an approximately 2.5 to 3 weeks postal delivery timeline (usually shorter than the stipulated shipping time on each item, but I prefer to be safe).
However, upon shipping your order, I will include pictures of the package to let you it is off and give you an idea of what to expect.
If you are in a hurry or prefer expedited shipping though (2-3 days), please let me know and I'll advise you of the cost and arrange it for you.

5 out of 5 starsOverall great experience! Estimated delivery was 100% accurate. My pot is exactly what I have been searching high and low for. Well made, nice weight, heat is evenly distributed. Definitely a timeless piece that reminds me of back home in Trinidad 🇹🇹. I will be passing down from generation to generation...and getting more pieces! Blessings!

Showcasing fresh Jamaican pimento/ allspice
Authentic and Traditional Jamaica finds Etsy!
In 2018, I did an amateur video about the market in Montego Bay, capturing what I call, the sights and sounds!
Among other persons, I interviewed a roots lady, called Bones, and the rest is history.
The video has amassed close to 200,000 views, and counting.
You can watch the video here as well: https://youtu.be/7wDLZNE2hDM?sub_confirmation=1
And the majority of the comments, you'll notice, outside of commending Bones on her knowledge and pleasant smile, were asking about how to get these authentic Jamaican herbal products!
And so the sparked an idea... and this Etsy store was created, belatedly, in February 2020, as the product arm of my website, my-island-jamaica.com.
And yes, bones is now not only a friend, but a partner with me in this venture!
If you are looking for authentic and traditional Jamaican items, this is your one stop shop! And if it is not listed, just send me a message, we'll source it for you!
Happy shopping!! I look forward to meeting you!
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Since the cost of expedited shipping from Jamaica is very expensive, in many cases, more than the value of the item, I typically ship via the standard postal service, albeit there is an approximately 2-3 weeks postal delivery timeline (usually much earlier than the time I state in the shipping for each item)
However, upon shipping your order, I will include pictures of the package to let you it is off and give you an idea of what to expect.
If you insist or prefer expedited shipping though, please let me know.
