Java Long Pepper – A rare spice with warm and enchanting notes

Product Description

A true treasure among ancient spices, Java long pepper stands out with its unique elongated catkin shape and its rich aromatic profile. Cultivated in Indonesia, on the island of Java, it offers a refined alternative to classic black pepper.
