Tastes of Pepper
Pepper spectrums
Just like wine or oil, peppercorns get their name from their place of origin. And their territory – local soil and climate – has a huge bearing in shaping each pepper's flavour profile. It's why pepper is at its very best when paired with other regional ingredients and cuisines.
Pepper chemistry
We did say that pepper is a complex little berry. It owes much of its unique flavours to a chemical called piperine. Break through the husk of a peppercorn, where all the essential oils are found, and at its heart you'll find piperine.
