Origin

Kampot pepper is grown in the Kampot province located in the very south of Southeast Asian Cambodia.

It is an area that, thanks to its coastal climate and geological conditions, allows local farmers to produce pepper of the highest quality in the world. It is no coincidence that this pepper has obtained protected geographical indication, similar to French champagne.
We buy pepper from small family farms under direct trade conditions, which guarantee fair remuneration for every grower and we try to promote this approach among other traders as well.
Thanks to this, by purchasing from us you get not only pepper of the highest quality but also the certainty that you are buying a sustainable and morally responsible product that helps provide its producers with medical care and education for their children

Characteristic

The set consists of four types of Kampot pepper: black, red, white, and green.

They differ from each other in taste and aroma, which you can hardly find in pepper bought in regular supermarkets.

Black pepper releases tones of eucalyptus, camphor, and thyme after grinding, accompanied by the scent of lime peel. These gradually transition into a seaside aroma with developing fruity notes. The dominant aroma is peach and nectarine, accompanied by the scent of pine and earthy tones of Cambodian mountain soil full of minerals.

Rare red pepper is an explosion of fruity tones with a milder pungency. Initially, rose and rosehip fruit tones dominate, which then transition into dried cherries. After two to three minutes, the more characteristic scents of Kampot pepper begin to develop, such as citrus fruits, dried mandarins, and a more earthy crust of sourdough bread.

White pepper is a gentle yet still peppery caress for the taste buds. After grinding, scents of camphor, sage, and cedarwood develop, accompanied by a subtle aroma of nutmeg flower, grapefruit, and other citrus fruits. After a few minutes in the mouth, you can sense tones of nutmeg nut, thyme flower, and lemon balm underpinned by the aroma of cedar and black tea.

Green freeze-dried pepper brings the maximum fresh taste of green peppercorns. Even in this case, expect a peppery taste full of sharpness in a very intense and rich form. The taste of green freeze-dried pepper combines fresh notes of freshly cut grass, green tea, and citrus with a subtle hint of sea salt flavor.

Processing

Kampot pepper is divided into three basic colors, which differ from each other by the processing of the peppervine fruits.

In the case of black pepper the grains are harvested when the peppercorns are still green. They are then dried under the intense Cambodian sun, where they acquire their characteristic black color and wrinkled surface.

"Red pepper" is obtained by harvesting fully ripe peppercorns. They ripen to a deep red color and are full of fructose, which gives this type of pepper its unique flavor.

"White pepper" is a specialty obtained from fully ripe red peppercorns. These are then dried in direct sunlight and soaked again to remove the red skin, leaving only the creamy white peppercorn.

"Freeze-dried green pepper" is harvested from fragile, still unripe peppercorns. Instead of classic sun drying, they undergo a freeze-drying process – drying by freezing, which removes moisture from the grains. Added Kampot salt preserves their freshness during transport. After unpacking, just a drop of oil or water is enough for them to absorb moisture again, and the pepper regains its original texture and flavor, as if it were freshly picked from the vine.

Thanks to careful selection corresponding to the strict quality requirements for Kampot pepperset by the Kampot Pepper Association, only the best grains are handpicked. They are then vacuum-packed to preserve quality and freshness during the journey to the Czech Republic, where they are further selected, packed, and delivered right to your table.

Usage

Thanks to the different taste, aroma, and spiciness, the various types of pepper are suitable for different purposes.

Black pepper is a universal spicethat does not get lost in any dish. However, it is ideal to pair it primarily with dark red meat. It will elevate any steak on the grill or pan to perfection, but it also finds its place in classic sauces, soups and goes wonderfully with pasta.

. Red pepper, thanks to its fruity character, is the king of cold cuisine. It suits vegetable salads, pairs well with risotto, soups, and don't be afraid to experiment with it when preparing sweet desserts or mixed drinks. Rather than with dark meat, combine it with fish or light poultry meat.

White pepper is suitable for light meat. It wonderfully enhances the flavor of seafood, pairs well with risotto, creamy soupsand its taste is not lost even in combination with a good pasta.

Freeze-dried green pepper from Kampot is the most versatile of the green peppers we offer. Crushed, it goes perfectly with any type of meat, dark, light, game, and fish. It refreshes pasta, baked dishes with cheese and mushrooms, as well as sauces. It definitely doesn't fall flat in autumn soups, you can experiment with it in desserts and ice cream, and the most indulgent can also enjoy it in combination with truffles.

The finer you crush Kampot pepper, the more intense the spicinesswill be; on the other hand, larger fragments or whole grains lend the dish more specific pepper tones.

Package

Thanks to the materials used and the special bag sealing technology, air and moisture do not reach the pepper.

The grains thus retain their authentic taste and aroma after opening the bag of Kampot pepper. After emptying, you can also upcycle the bags as part of sustainability and continue to use them in many other ways. We pack the pepper into resealable bags weighing 20 grams. Each Package also includes a brochure that brings you the story of the best pepper in the world and introduces you to the world of .pepper..field.

Awards

Quality is our top priority, as confirmed not only by the certificates our pepper holds but also by the awards it receives from international competitions.

Among the most significant is the award given to our pepper within the framework of the Great Taste competition, one of the most prestigious contests in the world of gastronomy.

However, sustainability is also important to us, which we do not perceive as empty words, as evidenced by the SDG’s award granted to truly sustainable and socially responsible projects.
