Piper nigrum

Whole Tellicherry Peppercorns

What it is
Tellicherry black peppercorns are premium, large-sized berries of the Piper nigrum plant, also grown in Kerala, India. They are harvested later and specially graded for size (over 4.25 mm), producing a rarer and more aromatic pepper.

Flavor & Aroma
Warm, robust, and complex with citrusy, fruity undertones alongside classic pepper pungency. Larger berries give a more aromatic and nuanced flavor compared to Malabar.

Traditional Use
Traditionally prized by chefs and spice merchants for finishing dishes and gourmet cooking, where its layered flavor can shine.

How to Prepare & Use
Grind fresh for maximum flavor, or use whole in marinades, sauces, and slow-cooked recipes. Perfect for gourmet cooking, steaks, sauces, and recipes where pepper flavor takes center stage.

Storage Tip
Store in a cool, dry place in an airtight container to maintain freshness, flavor, and potency.
