This black pepper is a variety of pepper grown in the Kampot region of Cambodia.
Considered one of the best peppers in the world due to its rich and complex flavour, it offers notes of eucalyptus, mint and camphor. Black Kampot pepper is praised for its strong aromas and crunchy texture.
The cultivation of this pepper is an ancient tradition in the region dating back over 700 years.
In 2010, the European Union recognized Kampot pepper as a protected geographical indication (IGP). This means that only peppers grown in the Kampot region according to strict standards can be sold under this name.
The peppercorns are harvested while they are still green, then boiled and air dried. Natural oxidation gives the peppercorns their characteristic black colour.
Due to its exceptional taste and IGP label, black Kampot pepper is often considered a luxury product. It pairs perfectly with meat, fish, eggs and seafood.

For optimal flavours, grind this pepper over your plate just before serving, using an appropriate pepper mill.

Chef Philippe's tip: serve a dessert with candied pears, cinnamon flower buds and black Kampot pepper, and be sure to impress.
