Purple Peppercorns

Burlap & Barrel's vine-ripened Purple Peppercorns are the heirloom Vietnamese variety Vinh Linh, renowned for its strong flavor. These are complex, fruity black peppercorns with an aroma like strawberries and a kick like a jalapeño. They can be used in place of black pepper in any recipe, as well as in desserts or ground over fresh cut fruit.

Unlike virtually every other black pepper in the world, these peppercorns are fully ripened on the vine, which requires expertise and commitment from the farmer and produces an exceptionally complex sweet and spicy peppercorn unlike any other we've tasted. These peppercorns were grown on a tiny regenerative farm by two friends, Dũng and Thanh.
