White Pepper - AK Spices & Herbs

🌿

Origin & Sourcing

Our premium White Pepper comes from the same pepper vines in Wayanad and Idukki districts of Kerala. White pepper is made from fully ripe pepper berries that are soaked in water and the outer skin removed, revealing the inner seed. This process gives it a milder, more subtle flavor than black pepper.

Same vines as Malabar Black Pepper
Traditional water-retting process
Carefully decorticated by hand
Sun-dried to perfect moisture level
