41. Got my first Penzey's items as a housewarming gift in 1992, and been using them ever since.

Super high quality, and a great company to do business with.

When they had their downtown Seattle store I was in there just about every Thursday. When that closed they had one in Lynnwood for a while but that also closed, so now it's all mail-order for us. The vast majority of my spice drawer and cabinet are Penzey's, and I buy the most-used items in the bulk bags, like Italian Sausage seasoning, Bavarian, Granulated Garlic Powder (tastes very close to fresh garlic, without that 'toasted' flavor that most garlic powder has).

Definitely, sign up for their email list if you haven't already. Great messaging along with some very good deals.
