Black Peppercorns

Black pepper is produced from the still-green, unripe drupes of the pepper plant. The drupes are cooked briefly in hot water, both to clean them and to prepare them for drying. The heat ruptures cell walls in the pepper, speeding the work of browning enzymes during drying. The drupes dry in the sun or by machine for several days, during which the pepper skin around the seed shrinks and darkens into a thin, wrinkled black layer. Once dry, the spice is called black peppercorn. On some estates, the berries are separated from the stem by hand and then sun-dried without the boiling process.

Once the peppercorns are dried, pepper spirit and oil can be extracted from the berries by crushing them. Pepper spirit is used in many medicinal and beauty products. Pepper oil is also used as an ayurvedic massage oil and in certain beauty and herbal treatments.

A selection of highly aromatic teas and spices in heat sealed packaging. Far superior in quality than supermarket alternatives with minimal potency. I would highly recommend this swap over.

Black dragon Oolong tea

I am glad I tried this tea. It makes a delicious cup of tea! Will be ordering again in the future 😀. As always packaged and delivered efficiently.

Peony Buds

These are beautiful. I’ve used some to create a peony-infused oil to use in cosmetics and it smells absolutely divine. Like roses, but with very subtly spicy and tea-like nuances. Definitely buying again.

King of Jasmine Tea

Enchanting appearance and aroma. Lightly fragrant and delicate on the palate the strength that I made and soooooo refreshing. Will be back for more in due course. The Oolong makes an ideal complement to the Jasmine. Delightful.
