Origin

The Kampot pepper is grown in Kampot province, located in the far south of East Asian Cambodia.

It is an area where its seaside climate and geological conditions allow local farmers to produce the very highest quality pepper in the world. It is no coincidence that this pepper has received protected geographical indication, much like French champagne. We buy pepper from small family farms under direct trade conditions that ensure a fair reward for every grower, and we strive to promote this approach among other traders. As a result, when you purchase from us, you not only obtain the highest quality pepper but also the assurance that you are buying a sustainable and ethically responsible product that helps provide its producers with medical care and education for their children.

Characteristic

The individual varieties of Kampot pepper differ from each other in flavor and aroma, which you can hardly find in pepper bought at ordinary supermarkets.

Green fermented pepper brings an absolutely delicate taste of fresh green peppercorns with graceful finesse. The process of lyophilization then elevates it to the heights of divine manna with a gentle touch of salty bloom from sea salt pools. Its soft texture melts on the tongue and in the mouth gradually unfolds from a base of delicate freshness, through a moderate spiciness, to a mild acidity and hints of fresh green pepper.

Processing

What makes our fermentation and subsequent lyophilization technology for green pepper so unique? How did we manage to transform a peppercorn into a perfectly complexly seasoned pepper flake?

The fermented Kampot pepper contains fresh green peppercorns processed using the traditional Japanese fermentation method right in Cambodia. A pinch of salt flower, obtained by evaporating seawater in Kampot, is added to the pickled peppercorns. During the subsequent lyophilization, the peppercorns are frozen-dried, which removes their moisture and even enhances the already refined flavor of the pepper that we developed as the first in the world. The resulting crushing of this fully seasoned pepper produces delicate flakes that are an authentic representation of green pepper with a hint of salt and green tea.

Thanks to a careful selection process that meets the strict quality standards for Kampot pepper, as established by the Kampot Pepper Association, only the very best peppercorns are hand-picked. They are then vacuum-sealed to preserve their quality and freshness during the journey to the Czech Republic, where they are further sorted, packaged, and delivered right to your table.

Usage

Pepper flakes are crushed after fermentation and freeze-drying.

Every kitchen, where there isn’t even grinder a mortar, will appreciate this. Thanks to two different processing methods, the flakes are especially suitable for flavoring dishes on the plate, much like pyramid sea salt is used.

With this pepper, you can serve all types of meat and just as wonderfully season your favorite salads and side dishes.

Package

We pack pepper into resealable bags with volumes ranging from 20 to 100 grams.

Thanks to the materials used and the special bag sealing technology, air and moisture do not reach the pepper. As a result, even after opening the bag, the peppercorns retain the authentic taste and aroma of Kampot pepper. After emptying the bag, you can also upcycle it as part of sustainability and continue to use it in a variety of ways. Every package also includes a brochure that brings you the story of the world’s best pepper and acquaints you with the world of .pepper..field.

Awards

Quality is our top priority, as confirmed not only by the certificates that our pepper carries but also by the awards it wins in international competitions.

Among the most significant are two stars awarded to black, red, and white pepper during the Great Taste 2022 competition, one of the world’s most prestigious gastronomic competitions. Sustainability is also important to us, and we do not treat it as mere empty words, as evidenced by the SDG’s award granted to genuinely sustainable and socially responsible projects.
