Whole grains in a glass mill 105ml India, Kerala Like wines, the great crus of pepper are the characteristic of a particular terroir and a unique culture. In India, one of the best crus is that of Tellicherry. Coming from the Malabar coast in India, more precisely from the port city of Thalassary (Tellicherry in English), it is one of the oldest species of pepper, and the most famous in the world. Characterized by quite large grains, it is a delicate black pepper, quite sweet on the nose and subtly woody. On the palate, the black Tellicherry pepper surprises with its spiciness and its very long warm notes on the palate.
