We grind only the finest Ceylon peppercorn, and in small quantities to guarantee freshness. This dustless grind is perfect for pepper shakers, ground to be fine enough to blend well into dishes.

Since our Leema spices are freshly harvested, they have a more pungent taste than other brands. Our peppercorns are warm, fiery, and spicy. We always recommend using a quarter of what the recipe says.
