Three of the four peppers in your gift.
“There’s pepper, then there’s Kampot Pepper".” Brendan Brady, Time Magazine.
Once the darling of Michel star restaurants, Cambodia’s pepper was thought extinct after it underwent a campaign of destruction by the Khmer Rouge who considered it a decadence. A few plants were discovered by an Aid worker who worked with locals to revive a crop. We partner with a local social entrepreneur group that supports a cooperative model and works with farmers to maintain a level of gourmet, small batch integrity.
This package contains a 40g box of black pepper, 40g box of red pepper, 40g box of white pepper and a special addition 40g box of long red pepper.
