Tasting Notes- Spicy, Sharp, Complex 

Our partner farmers grow pepper organically in forest gardens. They harvest the peppercorns from vines sustainably while also considering the biodiversity. When it is the right time to harvest, our expert farmers handpick the berries, sun-dry them, and ship them directly to us. We grind them in small batches and pack everything fresh to preserve the natural flavor profiles and to maintain the freshness. 

We grind only the finest Ceylon Peppercorn in small batches to guarantee freshness. This Coarse dustless grind is perfect for those of you who like a little extra texture and bite from your pepper. It also holds its flavor well over a longer cooking time.

Uses

Perfect for garnishing salads or as a simple rub, our coarse ground black pepper falls right between table grind and cracked black pepper in terms of size and potency.  Its larger grind not only enhances texture but allows for the potency of the peppercorn to pack a punch with heat and fragrant flavor.

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.
