Albert Menes Penja peppers with mill 50g

Much like with wine, the land on which the peppercorns are grown has a strong influence on how its flavours develop. Volcanic soil and the equatorial climate in the region surrounding Penja give this pepper a unique flavour with woody and musky notes. Its rareness, due to the small area in which is can be grown, its origin as well its flavour make it one of the most valuable peppers in the world. Picked when fully ripe  with a red colour, the peppercorns are then immersed in a freshwater bath. The softened skin of the peppercorns is then removed by hand, revealing the creamy white colour of the peppercorns. Considered one of the finest peppercorns in the world, this pepper has woody, amber-scented and musky notes. It has a powerful, full-bodied and  long-lasting taste. This pepper mill is practical for the dinner table and in the kitchen with two openings (at the top and bottom) allowing you to fully appreciate the quality of the freshly ground peppercorns.

We recommend to avoid cooking the Penja pepper for too long, as this can change its flavours. This pepper goes perfectly with and brings out the best flavours in seafood. It also goes surprisingly well with fromage frais or chocolatey desserts. Goes excellent with fleshy fish (turbot, monkfish), poultry fillets, rabbit and crudités.
