Fine ground, highly aromatic pepper is acclaimed for its superb flavour and bite. These 'bold' berried peppers are sourced from the erstwhile shipping port 'Allepey' - a Southern district of Kerala. Considered "the King of Spices", black pepper ( Piper nigrum L.) is whole dried fruit of the plant while white pepper is dried seed after removing the pericarp of berries. About 90 per cent of the produce is marketed in the form of black pepper and the rest as green pepper for pickling or processed as dehydrated pepper. Oil and oleoresin from pepper are being extracted by an increasing number of processing units. Black pepper is native to India; the evergreen forests of the Malabar Coast of Southern India are considered the centre of origin.
