Jacob Hooy & Co.

Fodor's Review:

Filled with teak-wood canisters and jars bearing Latin inscriptions, fragrant with the perfume of seeds, flowers, and medicinal potions, this health and wellness store has been in operation on Nieuwmarkt since 1743. Gold-lettered wooden drawers, barrels, and bins contain not just spices and herbs, but also a daunting array of dropjes (hard candies and medicinal drops) and teas.
