Whole Green Peppercorns for Soups Sauces or Dressings
Not your average peppercorns. Green peppercorns are the immature and unripe fruit of the Piper nigrum plant, the same plant that produces black peppercorns, white peppercorns, and red peppercorns. They are harvested while still green and either dried or preserved in brine, vinegar, or freeze-dried.
Our green pepper comes directly from the Indian ocean island of Sri Lanka where some of the finest pepper in the world is grown.

The product is excellent. The shipping left a lot to be desired. Product left many days (8) sitting in warehouse then took an extra week to be delivered once it got moving after I made an inquiry. Very disappointing. Never have had such poor delivery.
Great product
