🏺The story behind the Spice: This distinctive blend brings together five storied peppercorns, each carrying its own history, aroma, and character. At its heart is cubeb pepper, known as comet’s tail pepper, once prized along the ancient spice routes of Java and the Middle East for its resinous warmth and subtle floral lift. To this, the deep, smoky richness of smoked black peppercorns adds a whisper of hearth and ember—an echo of traditional preservation methods used for centuries.

Pink peppercorns, with their gentle sweetness and perfumed brightness, trace their heritage to South America, while green peppercorns offer the fresh, herbal vibrancy of early‑harvested spice from the lush Malabar Coast. Completing the ensemble, white peppercorns contribute a clean, earthy heat long favored in European and Asian kitchens for their refined, understated bite.

Together, these peppers create a seasoning that reflects a global tapestry of culinary tradition—an aromatic journey shaped by trade winds, ancient markets, and the enduring human love of spice.
