“I believe that Marrakesh ought to be earned as a destination. The journey is the preparation for the experience. Reaching it too fast derides it, makes it a little less easy to understand.” Tahir Shah

What’s not to love about Marrakesh? This beautiful ancient city in Morocco, North Africa, is famous for having the largest traditional Berber market (Jemaa al Fnaa) – souk – where you can pick up anything, from the exquisite to the mundane. Marrakesh; the city of Souks, Medina, and Gueliz, has great food, rich colors, music, and warm-hearted people who are passionate about their culture, welcomes the weary traveler with cuisine that could make you weep. Yes, I know, you saw Casablanca, Marouk, Zero, or Agadir Bombay, but Marrakesh is where we go for food and respite. This month, Try The World’s Marrakesh Box is taking us on a whirlwind tour of the cuisine of Marrakesh and the items in the sea-form box made me salivate for the tastes and heady smells of the marketplace. Better yet, if you sign up today, you’ll be entered for a chance to win a trip FOR TWO to MOROCCO! Scroll down for more!!!
“We look up to see if it is day or night. If stars burn cool and the moon does shine, We take to smoke divine and wine. If a breath of sun does belch its heat, we boil coffee and prepare to eat.” Roman Payn

Try The World: A Taste Of Marrakesh – Mediterranean Gourmet Ras-el-Hanout Spices
What I love about the contents of this month’s box is how each item can be used to recreate a popular Moroccan dish like the Marrakesh Stew, Sardines with lemon, Zaalouk, Vegetables with lentils and couscous, or anything on your favorite lists of Moroccan cuisine. This month’s Try The World Marrakesh box came with six key ingredients often added to a variety of dishes: Mustapha’s Mediterranean Lemon Confit made from organic, preserved Beldi lemons known for their tangy, briny quality that will add zing to your dishes. The Mediterranean gourmet Ras-el-Hanout is a high-quality spice blend of rosebuds, coriander, cinnamon, fennel, and other spices that go into many traditional dishes; typically made with twelve spices, they can be rubbed into meats or added to stews, couscous, rice and more.

So you thought Argan Oil is just for hair and skin? Not quite. Berber women in South West Morocco cultivate the Argan tree and use the antioxidant-rich oil to top off fish, and vegetables or in dips to eat with bread or any side of your choice. Dip & Scoop Culinary Argan Oil is made from carefully sourced, handcrafted, and harvested batches that are chosen for their top quality and purity levels. You must taste this to believe the delicate flavor. If you’ve ever eaten North African cuisine, you’d be very familiar with the ever-so-popular and versatile Harissa Sauce. Mediterranean Gourmet Harissa Sauce is popular for its zesty flavor; a combination of peppers ground with spices that can set the palette aflame while satisfying every craving you might have for bold and tasty dishes. It can be enjoyed with quinoa, couscous, rice, and even potatoes. You can even use your sauce to enliven a wide range of dishes. Are you ready to invite the souk into your kitchen?

This is the coolest idea for a subscription box EVER. I love trying new foods, so this is perfect for me.
My husband love dried figs. The argan oil is what I am interested in.
These are all flavors from a part of the country I have never been it would be interesting to taste
I would love to try some of those exotic foods. I love trying new things like this 🙂
Marrakech is such an exotic destination I do not know if I can even go there. I wish I do have the chance to visit it one day. I hear more about Casablanca because of the film, but I read that Marrakech is the better tourist destination. – Fred
These look like yummy goodies!! Great post!!
You could definitely expand your palate and your mind by subscribing to these boxes. They sound awesome!
I would love to try this subscription box out. I’m addicted to those things! They are the best.
This would be a great gift to someone. I will have to get some of these for the next family gathering.
This subscription box is right up my alley!! This is seriously brilliant! I love trying new cuisines and flavours in the kitchen!
$33/box certainly isn’t bad. I’ve not heard of this stuff before, but it sounds tasty
Wow those are amazing stuff! I can’t wait how everything will turn out! What dish would you be making? 🙂
This looks like such a fun box and the price isn’t bad either! I love to cook, so this may be just the box for me!
Marrakesh is a sure haven for food lovers. Great post, it inspires me to cook more 🙂
Looks like a great box!
I love Marrakech!
Same here! 🙂
What a great box with lots of goodies. I’d love to try that argan oil sometime.
It’s tiffany green box! The box look pretty small but I’m surprised by the amount of things inside! Tasting food from all around the world without stepping out, it’s one step beyond the internet!
I really like it’s packaging. It reminds me of the Tifanny blue. I really wish I can have Try THe World but it’s not available.
Marrakesh sounds so exotic and that box of goodies would be fun to sample at home!
My boyfriend loves testing out new food in the kitchen. He has been talking about a box like this so I see a father’s day gift!
i see culinary argan oil there! you mean we can use argan oil for cooking? not just for skin and hair moisturiser?
Oh, I just may have to “Try The World!” It looks so amazing! Thanks for sharing!
Marrakesh in overview. Nice review
I love the idea of having this delivered to my doorstep! It’s such a good way to try new and different dishes from all over the world.
Love this box. Seems like it has everything you need to make a meal.
wow, what a great opportunity to try all these treats from across the globe.
We just got our new box recently and both the s/o and I are kind of skeptical about this one. But I’m willing to give it a try- that’s the premise, right? Just try 🙂
I did see a picture of the box pop up on your Facebook page the other day and wondered what was in it – it all looks divine… and it’s making me very hungry!! Sim x
I have never had any food from Marrakesh, but that jar of preserved lemons looks awesome. I could make so many things with that!
What a super cool way to experience the flavors from other countries without actually traveling there! I will certainly look into this monthly box!
I’d love to try the moroccan sardines! It’s one of my favorite sardines! 🙂
Sounds like one would have to go to enjoy Marrakesh a few times to get the real feel of it and experiencing some of your great product ideas would certainly help that along!
This looks like an interesting collection of subscription box goodies. Although it doesn’t float my boat, my Dad would probably love those Moroccan sardines.
This basket of items is so cool. Id love to get this!
These boxes are amazing. I think there was one from Italy before- and I love that they’re like little vacations in a box!
This looks like a great recipe. I will have to give it a try this weekend.
i want this box! marrakesh is a place i want to visit. this is a great idea
Omg this is great! I love Moroccan food! When I lived in Orlando I had a annual Disney pass and would go to excite Moroccan restaurant a lot!
I want to try those macaroons. And I want to go to Morocco. 😉 The box is the next best thing until I get there, right? 🙂 Very nice subscription!!
Wow looks like amazing products. Love boxes of goodies.
This is a cool subscription box. I love that you can try different foods from around the world with leaving the comfort of your home.
Love this subscription box. You got such a wide variety of products. Really enjoyed reading your review 🙂
I would love to try the moroccan sardines. I’ve heard it from the news that Moroccan products are the best ones out there. Thank you for sharing
They do have great flavorings and spices for food. They would really give food a unique and enticing taste.
Do you have any idea if Try the World boxes are available in my country? It’s a very interesting concept and a great way to experience the place without going there. Were you able to try the argan oil for cooking? How was it?
My thoughts keep on wondering on what is Marrakesh! I imagine that it is a place where happiness is beyond compare, it is eternal and it is only for those who work on it really hard. I am mistaken with that presumption. Marrakesh is a place where natural foods aplenty. – Gil Camporazo
Love the packaging of the box! I’m curious about the contents, Culinary Argan Oil most of all. 🙂
Interesting goodies. I would love to try the Moroccan sardines. Makes me wonder if it tastes the same as our sardines. 🙂
Good products to have but I bet if Marrakesh box is available in our place.
This looks like a pretty cool sub box. I’m always up for trying new things.
After reading you post, I went to my parents home and showed them this post and got them to subscribe. I was extremely surprised and taken back by how excited they were by this. I still have to bring it up to my husband to see if we subscribe.
Wonderful and thank you!.I’m glad you encouraged them to do so. Don’t forget to use the discount so you/they can get 30% off the first box. 🙂
I just received my Marrakesh box in the mail yesterday and have not opened it yet. Like last time I wonder if you and I got different items. I’m excited to open it.
I love getting the boxes too. I think we got the same. 😉
I have always wanted to visit Marrakesh, as it is a very remarkable place that is a great inspiration for my art and paintings with its spices and colors.
This sounds and looks like an amazing subscription box indeed. I love the fact it has stuff I have never tried before and the recipes is a big bonus also. Thanks for sharing.
I’ve been adapting the cuisines of various countries to my current diet. A lot of these look really fun to try 🙂
I can’t get over how lovely these products are! I wish we had this in Manila! 😀
I’m a little scared to try out new tastes, actually, but the concept of this subscription box interests me. It’s a great way to travel the world without leaving your kitchen!
Wow! What a cool gift idea! My best friend would love this!
This looks really awesome. I know some people who’d love this.
Oh this is so cool! I bet my mom would love this!
Share it with her and give her the discount too.
Marrakesh is in my bucket list of places to visit. I’ve heard a lot of good things abour their coffee. 🙂

Morocco is definitely on my Bucket List to visit – I am lucky enough to get all of these products in NYC so I can easily try the recipe!
What an amazing collection of food. That jar of lemon preserves really catches my attention!
What great memories this post brings back, of our trip to Morocco a few years ago. We had such delicious food at every single meal.
What a fun box to subscribe to – it’s so cool that you get to try foods from all over the world, right in the comfort of your home. I think I’d pass on the sardines though – not for me!
I adore harissa, especially when it is combined with crispy potatoes it tastes so good! I love the sound of the spice rub as well!
I’m loving this Marrakech box too! I have to check out these boxes asap
I love couscous – looks like some great flavours in this box.
Another excellent box! I love that this one comes with a large tin of the spices, that seems like such a well thought out and authentic idea for this type of box. The lemon preserves also sound amazing!
Every time I see these amazing food boxes posted on your blog, I keep saying that I need to sign up for them! Morocco is a dream vacation for me, so maybe I could start prepping myself for the visit by making some Moroccan cuisine. 🙂
I had no clue that Marrakech was so famous for its food too. No wonder their market is so famous. I would love some of those figs too:)
