Chocolate-colored, this unsorted peppercorn comes from a small production in Amazonia. This pepper is dried when ripe, hot, with astonishing lemony notes, reminiscent of certain faux-peppery berries.
Place des Epices has been in the back of our minds for 30 years now. Our parents were gourmet restaurateurs who worked with fresh produce all their lives, our uncles and aunts were hoteliers, and our great-grandparents were butchers at Les Halles de Paris. Franck is an art director, Fred a botanist, and their shared passion for eating and entertaining led them to develop Place des Epices, an organic grocery store for the vast majority of products. We surround ourselves with the best spice suppliers in France and Europe, and scour the world for different products, each more astonishing than the last. Aswan, Taliouine, Alnif, Panamaram: so many cities of the world that we visit to come back with our heads full of emotions, beautiful encounters and recipes. Today it's Aurore, Laetitia, Yaiza and Julien who help us prepare and dispatch your orders on a daily basis, and tomorrow we'll be welcoming other enthusiasts. The circle is growing, but the workshop will always remain on a human scale to preserve our know-how and the quality of our products.
