I've always bought mine from the Pepper's Guild at Pennsic. They've
published what they put in theirs, but I don't have that info readily
at hand. But perhaps this file in the PLANTSm HERBS AND SPICES section
of the Florilegium might be of interest:
spice-mixes-msg   (42K)  3/22/02    Period spice mixtures. Poudre
Forte, Douce.

Yes, I'm back from Las Vegas and now trying to catch up on this list.
And oh yes, maybe get some stuff done for the Florilegium. Anyone going
to Lilies War, please look me up at the Florilegium Tile Project
Display in the A&S tents.
