~0~ Nabob is a Canadian company that was originally established in 1896 in Vancouver, British Columbia and now is a Don Mills, Ontario company that still makes Nabob Coffee. In 1994 Kraft Foods Canada acquired the Nabob Coffee Co. These familiar little spice tins were in most Canadian cupboards at least 30 or 40 years ago.The genie was the symbol for Nabob as also seen on the spice tins.
