An exceptional white pepper

Kampot's white pepper is one of the rare peppers produced exclusively from Red grains harvested at full maturity, as required by the Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) of Kampot. The result is a precious, subtle pepper and a great finesse.

Each red grain is taken by hand, directly from the cluster. After harvesting, the grains are cleaned, scrubbing and soaked overnight in clear water to soften the skin, which will then be easily removed. The nuclei are rinsed several times before being Sundried for two to three days, depending on the intensity of sunlight.

Unlike white Kampot pepper, the majority of the world's white peppers are obtained from black grains, requiring prolonged dipping that lasts several weeks — a method that often generates a strong, unpleasant smell.
