Organic Kampot Pepper Rare Cambodian Peppercorns Black 8 Ounce

This is an interesting pepper option - not quite as strong as Phu Quoc and with a distinct flavor of its own. Terrific on scrambled eggs. Fast delivery. Thanks.

Very flavorful, salty with burst of spice. The bag it came in was simply a ziplock bag equivalent, just a little thicker with label sticker that looked different than what’s shown in the picture. Over all the flavor is explosive compared to the peppercorns from Costco.

I recently learned about Kampot peppercorns. I’m now officially addicted. The flavor and heat is unique and outstanding. I highly recommend you try this.

So aromatic and flavorful! Great with any cooking and especially beef! Love it 😍.

This kampot black pepper is very mild and has a taste that comes out when heated. Simply grinding it onto food won't have much of a flavor. I ground the pepper into warm olive oil along with other spices and cookedon medium/low beat in a small shallow pan. The flavor was excellent after heating it directly. Adding it to dishes without heating first (with the exception of frying eggs) seems like a waste of these high quality peppercorns. I haven't tried roasting them but I assume they'd be tasty for a few days after roasting.

I ordered this pepper a little over a year ago and have kept it hidden from my wife. She would use this on boxed mashed potatoes, unaware that this is priced like gold. I accidentally spilled some on my floor while putting them in my pepper mill. The 5 second rule was out the window. I picked every last one up and pretended it never happened. With that being said, I use this pepper on very rare and deliberate occasions. It is unlike any other pepper I have ever used. The aroma that hits you as soon as its cracked is life changing and if you weren't into pepper before, this will open a whole new world for you. I have since researched pepper exhaustively and learned lots of things I never new before. Most people never thought of using pepper on desert, well guess what, after some research you are going to want to crack some red peppercorns over vanilla ice cream. And the red peppercorns we see here in the US are actually not peppercorns. They are berry's of another plant family. The real red peppercorns are the ripe end of a life cycle from these Kampot, Cambodia plants. They are much more rare than what most people believe and very difficult to find here in the US. With that being said, I have become excited about Kampot, Cambodia pepper and it all started with an Amazon order from this company. Finding these peppercorns from other companies has proven extremely difficult and unless you want to call some Cambodian Farmer and order 100 Kilos, this Amazon affiliated company is the place to purchase..

I like pepper. I've shopped around over many years trying to make sure I had good pepper and a good pepper mill to grind it in. This Cambodian pepper has glowing reviews, so I thought I'd give it a try. It is about four times as expensive as the pepper I usually buy. And after a little experimentation, it tastes roughly the same to me. The smell of a bag is definitely better than the smell of my normal pepper, but when it comes to eating it, I can't really tell the difference. And since I think I buy good pepper, and this is roughly the same, that makes this good pepper as well. But the price tag is pretty high for something that doesn't taste better.

OK, I now have a $25-a-month pepper habit; this stuff is addictive! In any side-by-side comparison, the typical grocery spice brands offer up pale aroma and taste in comparison to this product. Others peppers may elicit a sneezing response, but even if ground finely (why would you do this?), you get a wonderful pepper fragrance instead of nasal irritation. A little of this ground coarsely enlivens eggs, salads, sandwiches, sliced tomatoes, anything you would put pepper on, to a degree not tasted before. It is not just a strength of flavor although you’ll probably use less than with regular peppers. It is more of a freshness or intensity of flavor that does it. I’ve tried using the Kampot pepper in some cooked dishes like chili but I’ve concluded I’m wasting money by doing so. Far better to use Kampot as fresh-ground at time of serving to really enjoy it and the foods it enhances. And yes, like me you’ll likely buy a new pepper grinder set to “coarse” for this special spice.
