Pepper from Cambodia, from the Kampot region, was highly renowned before the Khmer Rouge took over the country. A few years ago, in 2004, a Frenchman decided to unite the farmers who had a few pepper vines to restart production in the region.

 

In this plantation there is not a single gram of pesticide or chemical fertiliser. Everything is natural. The fertiliser used is made of a mixture of rice paddy crabs and grass. New soil is regularly added and watering is done manually, which calls for enormous effort. To do such a hard job, you need to be passionately in love with your land and its products, and we can assure you that this is the case for the Ngnoun family.

 

 

 

 

The Taste

Red brown pepper with very hot and powerful notes. It is a seductive pepper, of a rare elegance with notes of warm bread and pastries, citrus fruits, spices and pineapple.
