Organic pepper | crushed | 0,5-1,5mm | black

What it is / Product description

Biova organic pepper comes from certified organic cultivation in Sri Lanka and is coarsely cracked with a grain size of around 0.5–1.5 mm. The black peppercorns are gently crushed after drying, creating an aromatic granulate with visible pieces. The intense pepper aroma with pronounced yet well-balanced heat makes this spice a versatile base for everyday cooking.

Thanks to the coarse granulation, the organic pepper is distributed evenly over dishes and allows the heat to be easily controlled. Biova focuses on bulk goods of consistent quality, ideal for gastronomy, manufacturers and discerning home cooks. Gentle processing helps preserve the essential oils and the typically warm, spicy character of black pepper.

Coarsely cracked organic pepper is excellent for final seasoning directly at the table as well as for marinades, rubs and spice blends. In the bulk version, the pepper granulate can be used flexibly in larger quantities, for example in professional kitchens or for producing your own organic spice creations. This way you can make full use of the aroma of black pepper in a practical, ready-to-use form.

Origin

The pepper plants grow in the tropical regions of Sri Lanka under warm, humid climatic conditions. Rich soils and high humidity promote intense, aroma-rich growth. Biova sources the raw material from selected organic farms that operate according to strict ecological standards.

Cultivation / Production / Harvest

The pepper is cultivated on trellises and harvested by hand at optimal ripeness. After harvesting, the green berries ferment and are dried in the sun until they develop their typical black colour. The pepper is then gently cracked to the defined grain size of 0.5–1.5 mm before the bulk goods are packed.

Special features

Characteristic is the coarse, uniform granulation, which lies between whole and finely ground peppercorns. This allows the product to combine intense aroma release with a pleasant texture on the plate. Compared to powder, the aroma remains stable for longer because the pieces offer less surface area for oxidation.

Differences in origin and processing

Pepper from Sri Lanka often shows a warm, spicy, slightly fruity profile that differs from very hot or rather earthy origins. The combination of sun-dried berries and gentle cracking at Biova results in a balanced ratio of heat, fragrance and bite. For users who value consistent grain size and reliable quality, this bulk product offers a dependable basis.

Taste & aroma

On the nose, the black organic pepper shows an intense, slightly smoky and warm-spicy aroma with fine fruity nuances. On the palate, a distinct but not overpowering heat unfolds, accompanied by a pleasant peppery note. The coarse structure provides small aromatic highlights with noticeable bite when eating.
