Product Description

Sustainably grown black peppercorns from Karnataka’s Western Ghats, sun-dried for maximum flavour. 100% organic, chemical-free, and rich in natural nutrients.

Black peppercorns are the dried fruit of the black pepper plant, one of the most commonly used spices worldwide. Known for their sharp, spicy flavour, they are harvested when the pepper berries begin to ripen and change colour from green to red. Once picked, the berries are sun-dried, turning black as they shrink and harden. Black peppercorns are prized not only for their culinary uses but also for their medicinal properties, as they contain piperine, an active compound that offers various health benefits. Ground or whole, black peppercorns are essential in adding depth and complexity to both savoury and sweet dishes.

  • 100% Organic: Grown without chemicals or pesticides, our peppercorns are pure and naturally farmed.
  • Sustainably Sourced: Our farming methods promote self-sufficiency and biodiversity, protecting the environment while ensuring top-quality produce.

Sourced from a sustainable farm in Belur, Karnataka, our black peppercorns benefit from the unique climate and soil conditions of the Western Ghats. This UNESCO-recognised hotspot is renowned for its biodiversity, making it an ideal location for growing pepper organically. The farm is surrounded by native trees and teeming with wildlife, creating a natural, chemical-free growing environment.

  • Freshly Ground: Grind black peppercorns directly onto dishes like salads, soups, and grilled vegetables for a burst of fresh, spicy flavour.
  • In Sauces and Curries: Add whole peppercorns to sauces, stews, and curries for a slow-release of spice as the dish cooks, adding depth to the flavour.
  • Baking and Sweets: Try adding a pinch of ground black pepper to baked goods like gingerbread, biscuits, or even chocolate-based desserts for a unique, warming kick.
  • Spicing Drinks: Sprinkle ground pepper into smoothies, herbal teas, or even spiced coffees for a warming note.
  • Salad Dressings: Combine freshly ground pepper with olive oil, lemon juice, or vinegar to make a simple, flavourful salad dressing.
  • Pickling: Whole peppercorns are often used in pickling brines, adding depth to preserved vegetables and fruits.
  • Garnishing Dishes: Use coarsely crushed peppercorns as a garnish for pasta, pizza, or scrambled eggs to give an extra layer of texture and spice.
