Native to the tropical Malabar region of Southern India, black pepper was once so precious that it was worth its weight in gold. Ancient Greeks and Romans valued it not only as a spice but for its medicinal properties, using it to treat ailments such as digestive issues and to counteract poisons like hemlock. It wasn't until the 15th century, when Portuguese explorer Vasco de Gama discovered the abundant black pepper on the shores of Calicut, that the spice gained widespread popularity, leading the Portuguese to seize control of the region's trade. Organic Black Pepper offers a sharp, woody flavor with subtle pine undertones. Its biting, spicy profile intensifies when used in larger quantities, making it a bold and invigorating addition for those seeking a flavorful kick.
