The King of Spices from the Malabar Coast

Hailing from the lush Malabar Coast of Kerala, India, Black Pepper is rightfully dubbed the "King of Spices." This coveted commodity sparked ancient explorations and has been a cornerstone of global cuisine for centuries. Our peppercorns are sourced from this premium region, home to the world's finest pepper, including the superior 'Tellicherry' and 'Malabar' grades.

Tellicherry peppercorns, in particular, are left to ripen longer on the vine, resulting in a larger size and a deep, well-rounded flavor. Zaycca brings you the authentic taste of this historic spice, ready to elevate your culinary creations.

Trivia

Black Pepper's immense value in ancient times led to it being called "Black Gold."

The quest for black pepper was a major driver of the Age of Discovery and the establishment of new sea routes.
