Origin

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

This is an area that, thanks to its coastal climate and geological conditions, enables local farmers to produce pepper of absolutelythe highest quality in the world. It is no coincidence that this pepper has received a protected geographical indication, similar toFrench champagne.
We buy pepper from small family farms underdirect trade conditions, which guarantee fair compensation for every grower, and we try to promote this approach among other traders as well.
Thanks to this, by buying from us you get not only pepper of the highest quality, but also the assurance that you are purchasing a sustainable and morally responsible product that will help provide its producers withmedical care and education for their children

Characteristic

Pepper differs from one another in its taste and aroma, which you can hardly find in pepper bought in ordinary supermarkets.

Ground black pepper releases notes ofeucalyptus, camphor, and thyme accompanied by the scent of lime peel. These gradually develop into a seaside aroma with developingfruity notes. The dominant aroma ispeach and nectarine, accompanied by the scent of pine and earthy tones of Cambodian mountain soil full of minerals.

Rare red pepper is an explosion offruity notes with milder pungency. At first, the notes of rose and rose hips, which then turn into dried cherries. After two to three minutes, more characteristic aromas for Kampot pepper begin to develop, such ascitrus fruits, dried mandarins and a more earthy crust of sourdough bread.

White pepper isa gentle yet still peppery caress of the taste buds. After grinding it, aromas ofcamphor, sage, and cedarwood, accompanied by a delicate aroma of nutmeg blossom, grapefruits, and other citrus fruits. After a few minutes in the mouth, you can detect notes of nutmeg, blossom ofthyme and lemon balm supported by the aroma of cedar and black tea.

Processing

Pepper is divided into three basic colors, which differ from each other in the processing of the fruits of the pepper vine.

In the case ofblack pepper the berries are harvested at the moment when the peppercorns are still green. They are then dried in 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, thanks to which this type of pepper has its unique taste.

White pepper is a specialty obtained from fully ripe red peppercorns. These are then dried in direct sunlight and soaked again so that the red skin can be removed, leaving only the creamy white peppercorn.

Thanks to careful selection corresponding tothe strict quality requirements for pepper exported from Kampot, set by the Kampot Pepper Association, only the very best grains are always hand-picked. They are then vacuum-packed to preservequality and freshness during the journey to the Czech Republic, where they are further selected, packaged, and delivered right to your table.

Use

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

Black pepper is auniversal seasoning, one that is unlikely to get lost in almost any dish. Still, it is ideal to pair it mainly withdark red meat. It will elevate any steak cooked on the grill or in a pan to perfection, but it also has its place inclassic sauces, soupsand it also pairs wonderfully withpasta.

Red pepper, thanks to its fruity character, is theking of cold cuisine. It is suitable for vegetable salads, pairs well withrisotto, soups, and don't be afraid to experiment with it when preparingsweet desserts or mixed drinks. Rather than with dark meat, combine it with fish or light poultry meat.

White pepper is suitablefor light meat. It will greatly enhance the flavor of seafood, it pairs well withrisotto, creamy soupsand its flavor will not get lost even in combination with good pasta.

The more finely you crush pepper Kampot , themore intense the pungency will be, whereas larger fragments or whole peppercorns will lend the dish more of pepper's specific notes.
