The tasting note.

Warm, earthy and unmistakably aromatic. Cumin brings deep savoury character with a subtle bitterness and warmth that anchors grilled meat, beans, vegetables and spice blends without needing to dominate them.

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.
