Judges Comments:
These are beautiful-looking black peppercorns. When crushed they have a unique citrussy aroma. On tasting there is, of course, a powerful level of heat but there is so much fragrance. That perfume and some citrus linger on the palate along with the heat to add depth and complexity and those flavours keep on coming. Peppercorns that keep on giving. These are stunning and would enhance any dish or any meal. What a fabulous, outstanding condiment!
A floral, citric aroma that is almost meadow fresh. Floral notes come through in the tasting, too, along with a dancing heat, and lasting aftertaste. These really pack a punch, and all components marry up well. We could think of no way to improve them. Truly delicious, even on their own.
Other Common Names: Black Pepper, White Pepper, Green Pepper, Red Pepper. Botanical Name: (Piper nigrum).
Description & Use: All true pepper whether black, white, green or red comes from the berries of a tropical evergreen vine. Black peppercorns are the green unripe peppercorns picked from the vine and dried in the sun. The natural enzymes in the outer husk (pericarp) of the peppercorns turn the green berries black on drying, forming the volatile oil piperine which gives black pepper its characteristic flavour.
Black Kampot Pepper is best suited to enhance the flavour of robust meat dishes, slow cooking and savoury sauces (you’ll never taste a better Steak Au Poivre). BBQ’s also love Black Kampot Pepper.
Produced and packaged in Cambodia.

Great Taste 2023 : 2 Star Award: Outstanding
Judges Comments:
This is a pretty and attractive blend of herbs and spices, which is aromatic and enticing. It has attitude and punch. There are many layers of flavour which develop and dissipate. There is some powerful heat, intense sour notes and warm tones. The salt threads through it all well - balancing out the bullies and moderating the blend. Clever stuff.
A varied blend with a complex flavour and aroma. There is heat and fragrance from the pepper, with layers of interest underneath, good quality spices and everything really well balanced with the salt. This has been put together with thought.
A bold aroma from this little pot of spice - led by pepper, cloves and other warming spices. On the palate the pepper is perfumed and fragrant - the other spices back up the heat, there are layers of spice, warmth, slightly numbing clove and with a sweet salty back note underpinning the whole.
Description & Use:
Well its all a bit of a secret, we can say that its 40% Kampot Pepper, herbs and dried spices and 60% Kampot Fleur de Sel. Monsieur Buchot can not be persuaded to part with his secret concoction.
When you are using salt and pepper, just use this instead. The blend is particularly good on the grill (fish, meat or vegetables). Fantastic on baked Pasta dishes. Gluten and Nut free.

Judges Comments:
Plump and evenly covered with salt. Perfumed and flowery, fruity and aromatic, salty with a complex heat. An initial kick which lingers on the palate and then subsides to a softer warmth. A very versatile ingredient to use in the kitchen with sauces, or mixed with lime to drizzle on fish.
Fresh and fragrant, hot and lingering - developing heat and yet not singular at all in that heat. The complexity and layers of flavour range from fruity to sweet, hot to vibrant, all the time filling the palate with pure taste. Astonishing - how can one little berry deliver such intensity of flavour. Great taste excellence.

A release of amazing flavour which dances in the mouth with fruity, tart, citrus notes intensified by fermenting to produce a very complex tasting product which is having a true party in your mouth, great balance, depth and length producing a truly wonderful product.
Beautifully fruity and peppery, the peppercorns are moist and juicy and fermented in taste, with amazing flavour notes.

BoTree Red Kampot Pepper: This truly is the King of Pepper. Red Kampot Peppercorns have a sweet, almost fruity note combined with an underlying heat that just keeps coming. Use sparingly as this is a rare and beautiful pepper.
Great Taste 2022 : 2 Star Award: Outstanding
Judges Comments:
These are delicious and that heat is fruity, pungent, fragrant and very delicious. Great complexity and lip tingling loveliness. A well rounded heat that lingers brilliantly. Most enjoyable.
This vibrant peppercorn starts off with a fruitiness which is pleasing and then the heat begins to grow and it keeps on going! A great product with loads of depth and vibrancy.
There is an initial fruity note before the heat of the pepper kicks in. The heat is intense and long, a bold and powerful pepper character. A great example of a great quality peppercorn.
Description & Use: The unique sweetness in our late harvest Red Kampot Pepper works particularly well with foods that have (or need) added sweetness. Great with Game (especially Venison), Duck, Pork and Shellfish. Add’s a whole new dimension to salad dressings.
This is the best pepper you will ever taste and is recognised as the finest pepper in the World.
The natural enzymes in the outer husk (pericarp) of the peppercorns turn the ripened berries red on drying, forming the volatile oil piperine which gives our pepper its characteristic flavour.
