Tellicherry Black Pepper
Why Tellicherry is different
Tellicherry pepper is prized for its naturally high piperine content — the compound responsible for pepper’s heat, aroma, and digestive benefits. Compared to ordinary pepper varieties, Tellicherry peppercorns are larger, richer in essential oils, and more complex in flavour.
At Ashya, our pepper is sourced directly from trusted growers in Kerala, carefully dried and processed to preserve its natural oils and bold aroma. Each batch is verified for purity and quality to ensure consistent flavour and potency.
All values independently verified. Quality checked for consistency and purity.
