Elevate your dining table with Kurata Pepper's Ripe Pepper, a rare harvest from the 2025 crop. Only a few extra-large berries are allowed to mature on each bunch, left on the vine until fully ripe, then hand-picked one by one. Sun-drying concentrates their sweetness, creating a rich umami flavor with a lingering warmth and gentle heat. The aroma carries fruity notes reminiscent of raisins, layered with a deep fragrance like precious aloeswood incense.
Kurata Pepper works with local farmers in Cambodia, growing pepper naturally without pesticides or chemical fertilizers, using traditional methods passed down through generations. This finishing spice is meant to stay right on your table: its luxurious, lingering aroma enhances the natural sweetness and umami of any dish, from salads and hearty mains to soups, desserts, fruit, and drinks.
These peppercorns are sold whole in a 20g pouch, so you can enjoy the vibrant aroma of freshly ground pepper straight from your own mill. Store the sealed bag at room temperature, away from direct sunlight, heat, and moisture, and it will keep for three years. Orders are limited to ten packs per customer to share this special harvest.
