Ecuadoran organic black peppercorns prove the theory that the closer a pepper crop grows to the Equator, the hotter the pepper becomes. Where could you find a pepper crop closer to the Equator than Ecuador? If you want to spice up your black pepper, this is the pepper for you! It is hot stuff!
The plantation that produces this pepper yields small crops due to the total lack of chemicals. The picking, sorting, drying and final selection of peppercorns is all carefully done by the farmers own staff--people that care. The result is a clean, robust, aromatic pepper. This pepper is great for the adventurous culinarian!
Many of our chef customers have become so enamored of the chile-like heat intensity of this newcomer to the pepper world, that they no longer use any black pepper but this. Beware though, these are people who really like hot stuff. This is not the pepper for everyone. Tellicherry black pepper is still the most popular, robust, all-purpose black pepper.
Only dull people are brilliant at breakfast.
