Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a multi-compartment spice grinder. The grinder comprises a container having a hollow receiving space for receiving a multi-partition component allowing the grinder to be filled with a different whole kernel spices in each compartment. An upper cap may be received over the container and a grinding mechanism may be secured to the upper cap. In operation, the multi-partition component is rotatable within the container allowing a user to select which compartment, and subsequently which spice, will engage the grinding mechanism when the grinder is inverted. When inverted the selected spice rests on the grinding mechanism, in a manner such that when the spice grinder is activated the spices engage the grinding mechanism and ground spices fall through an outlet of the grinding mechanism by gravity flow.
