What is Peppercorn, Black - Whole?
Whole Black Peppercorns are the dried unripe berries of Piper nigrum, a flowering vine in the family Piperaceae. This single plant is the source of all true pepper: black, white, green, and red differ only by ripeness at harvest and by how the berries are processed. Whole peppercorns ground fresh deliver far more aroma than pre-ground pepper.
About the plant
Native to the Malabar Coast of South India, pepper has been called the "King of Spices" and is the most-traded spice in the world. Its pungency comes from the alkaloid piperine. The historic pepper trade shaped centuries of exploration and commerce. Today major producers include Vietnam, India, Indonesia, and Brazil.

Herb Stomp (Sandy) is BY FAR the best Herb and Kratom store I have ever been to. In my 2.5 years of using Kratom, I have never been to a place as helpful as this! The employees are so so helpful! Usually when buying Kratom, I’m met with grumpy head shop owners who seem to want me to either spend out of my budget, or…
Awesome, knowledgeable staff. Great selection and quality of herbs and ethnobotanicals. I also appreciate that testing is done for contaminants and potency on certain herbs. In 8 years coming here I have yet to purchase anything stale or otherwise questionable quality. We technically *could* ask for more in a local…
