Un-ground, this pepper exudes warm, tasty notes of currants, tobacco leaf, brioche, undergrowth, humus, with hints of cocoa, prune, fig and aromatic wood burned in the fireplace. When ground, it has surprisingly dominant scents of still-green citrus peel (mandarin, citron) or candied citrus fruits (bitter orange), mint, eucalyptus, pine sap and green wood.
A powerful pepper, it has a beautiful sweetness, its spice is sharp and it is beautifully long-lasting in the mouth. The dominant flavours are still-green citrus peels (mandarin, citron) candied citrus fruits (bitter orange), menthol, raisins.
The generously sized grains, harvested at one third of their maturity, have never seen the light and are a bronze-green to powerful brown or even almost black colour.
The volcanic lands of the Bolaven Plateau continue to reveal their secrets. Philippe, founder of the experimental farm which is a partner of the Comptoir des Poivres, has made his first green pepper harvest, a pepper in which the core has already been formed.
