Black and White Peppercorn Blend

Description

A perfect mix of our Malabar black and white peppercorns. Bold black pepper taste and the distinctively subtle smooth white pepper not only look great in your pepper mill but will add a wonderful mixture of peppery flavor to any dish.

The history of the spice trade essentially about the quest for pepper. Peppercorns and long pepper from the coast of Malabar (India) reached Europe at least 3,000 years ago. Because of the importance of the spice trade these trade routes were fiercely protected and empires were built and destroyed because of it. Pepper has even been used as currency. In 408CE the Goth demanded pepper as a part of their tribute when they laid siege to Rome. Later pepper was traded ounce for ounce for gold and used to pay dowries, rents, and taxes. The main producers of pepper are India (still!), Indonesia, Brazil, Malaysia, and Vietnam.
