Our award-winning, vine-ripened whole Zanzibar Black Peppercorns are carefully hand-picked and sun-dried for a bright, fruity and spicy peppercorn. Black pepper grows in bunches like grapes, on a climbing vine. Most black peppercorns are harvested while still green, and the drying process gives them their distinctive dark skin.
These are rich, chocolate-colored peppercorns with dense wrinkles and a bright, fruity spiciness. Burlap & Barrel is the exclusive importer of Zanzibar black pepper into the United States. Our pepper, like all of our spices from Zanzibar, are grown organically.
Cooking Tips: Grind over everything for a bright, peppery kick. Make the best cacio e pepe of your life. Cook a few tablespoons with butter, shallots and cream for an Au Poivre sauce.
