Organic pepper | whole | green | cold smoked

What is it about / Product description

This organic pepper consists of whole green peppercorns from controlled organic cultivation, which are gently cold-smoked over beech wood in the Biova manufactory in Germany. The corns retain their intense green colour and combine mild to medium heat with a clearly perceptible smoky note. The result is a finely balanced spice that gives dishes a distinctive yet well-rounded seasoning.

Thanks to carefully selected raw materials, certified organic quality and transparent processing, this spice is ideal as bulk goods for gastronomy, delicatessens and resellers. The whole grain size is perfect for pepper mills or mortars and provides a freshly ground aroma directly at the table. Biova relies on gentle cold smoking to preserve the structure, colour and essential oils of the peppercorns as well as possible.

In creative cuisine, the cold-smoked organic pepper offers a wide range of uses, from grilled meat and fish to vegetables, sauces and dips. Vegetarian and vegan dishes also benefit from the subtle beech smoke note without the need for additional smoking. This allows the spice to be dosed flexibly and supports both classic and modern recipe ideas.

Origin

The green peppercorns come from selected growing regions in Sri Lanka and are brought to Germany for refinement. There, cold smoking over beech wood takes place under controlled conditions. This combination of tropical origin and German manufactory work ensures organic quality, traceability and a consistently harmonious aroma profile.

Cultivation / Production / Harvest

The pepper plants grow in sustainable plantations where resource-conserving management is a priority. The green berries are harvested early, while they are still fresh and juicy, then gently dried and processed as whole corns. In the German Biova manufactory they are cold-smoked over beech wood so that structure, colour and essential oils are largely preserved.

Special features

Characteristic are the whole grain size, the bright green colour and the delicately smoky aroma from beech smoke. Cold smoking creates a subtle, non-intrusive smoky note that supports the natural flavour of the pepper instead of overpowering it. As bulk goods with approx. 1.05 kg per bag, this organic spice is particularly interesting for professional kitchens, manufactories and resellers.

Differences in origin and processing

Unlike classic black pepper, green pepper is harvested earlier and dried differently, which preserves its fresh, slightly herbaceous note. The additional smoking in Germany gives it an independent profile that clearly sets it apart from unsmoked varieties. In this way, the product combines the typical aromas of the country of origin with artisanal refinement on site.

Taste & aroma

Sensorially, there is an interplay of mild to medium heat, fresh green notes and a clearly perceptible yet fine beech smoke aroma. The scent is reminiscent of freshly ground pepper with a subtle smoky note and associations with grilled dishes and wood fire. On the palate, the spice is lively without being dominant and supports the inherent aromas of the dishes.

Possible applications

• For seasoning grilled or fried meat, fish and vegetables directly from the pepper mill.
• As an aromatic component in sauces, soups, stews and creamy dips.
• For fine smoky accents in vegetarian and vegan dishes such as bowls, roasted vegetables or salads.
