138050
The 3 peppers (black, red and white) come from the same plant which is the pepper tree (or piper nigrum) which gives clusters of green pepper when fresh and young. To obtain red pepper, the clusters of green pepper are left on the pepper plant a little longer, until the seeds turn red/orange. During the drying stage, it darkens a little but retains reddish notes. Also, the flavor is different from black pepper, we are more on notes of honey, gingerbread. As for white pepper, it is first a red pepper from which the film (skin) has been removed during the fermentation process which consists of immersing the red pepper in a barrel/barrel filled with water for 8 days and then dry it for a day in the sun. If by misfortune, said day is not very sunny, the pepper will have a café au lait colour.
An exceptional and atypical tonka bean, cardamom and peppers from small producers imported directly from Colombia.
Romain Laly is a spice sourcer in the Amazon, in direct contact with certain ethnic groups in Colombia. It sources in particular a tonka bean of a different variety, rarer and aromatically more pleasant than the usual varieties. It is also visually larger. It also sources directly from small Colombian producers of green cardamom and peppers (black, red and white). By offering better incomes to Colombian farmers, we contribute together to the fight against deforestation, trafficking and illegal mines that are destroying the magnificent Colombian landscapes.See all products in this range
