Black Peppercorns Indonesian Lampong, Whole

Lampong peppercorns come from the Indonesian region of Sumatra. The pepper vines are found twisting up trees, these peppercorns are smaller compared to Tellicherry or Vietnamese peppercorns. Their flavour has a fruity and smoky roundness, with a spiciness on top of the tongue. When compared with other peppercorns, they’re typically darker in colour with a rough texture, wrinkled skin and slightly irregular shape.

Sumatra is well regarded for its high-quality pepper production, thanks to its volcanic soil, tropical climate and abundant rainfall. Here, the Lampong peppercorns are handpicked after reaching full maturity, then left for a number of days to ferment in the sun. This fermentation process enhances the flavours and aroma of the Lampong peppercorns.

Indonesian Lampong peppercorns have a pungent scent to accompany their unusual and unique flavour. These peppercorns are a delightful change to your standard pepper mill and a must-have for the gourmet pepper connoisseur!
