These pepper trees grow in the humid and changeable tropical climate zones of Sri Lanka. The selected terroirs for cultivation and climatic conditions are the ideal prerequisites for the growth and development of the pepper's valuable flavours and natural ingredients, such as alpha- and beta-pinene, beta-caryophyllene and sabinine. The fruits are harvested by hand, sun-dried and processed in the manufacturer's distillery using steam.

Pepper
Pepper (Piper nigrum) is an evergreen climbing plant that belongs to the pepper family (Piperaceae). Originally from India, the plant is now cultivated in many regions of South East Asia and Brazil. The plant grows to a height of around 10 metres and produces leathery, heart-shaped leaves and small white flowers in summer. After fertilisation, the flowers ripen into spherical, red fruits. Pepper is harvested and dried at different stages of ripeness for the different varieties (green, black, white, red pepper). Black pepper is probably one of the oldest commodities in the Orient, where it has been used for medicinal and culinary purposes for thousands of years.
Aroma
The aromatic flavour of black pepper has a wonderfully warming, activating and calming effect. The aroma helps you to connect deeply with the earth and draw energy from it again.
