Peppercorn, Kampot Black
$12.00Revered by French chefs for their jasmine-like aromatics, signature sweetness, and intense lingering heat. Kampot peppercorns are considered among many to be the best in the world.
▪ Grown in Kampot, Cambodia under a recognized appellation by the European Union & the United Nations, one of the most restrictive cooperatives in the world
▪ In the 1970s, the leadership of Cambodia had the pepper vines torn out by the roots. Farmers were instructed to focus on producing food for domestic consumption. With political change over the past 20 years, several farmers have brought the storied pepper fields back into production.
▪ To use the appellation “Kampot”, the product must be grown within the Kampot region, sampled annually, and farmed using organic growing methods
