Spice profile

The tasting note.

Bright and deeply aromatic, with warm wood, citrus lift and a lingering pepper heat. Its fragrance opens as it is cracked, bringing clarity and depth to steak, eggs, tomatoes and rich sauces without flattening what sits underneath it.

Kerala, India

Origin · India

The home of extraordinary pepper.

Pepper vines climb shade trees in the Western Ghats and ripen slowly in monsoon humidity. Late picking and slow sun-drying are what give a Tellicherry-style grade its size, its citrus lift and its long resinous finish.
