Gourmet Black Peppercorns, Organic and Award-Winning, for Pepper Grinder Refill

Zingerman's CEO, Mr. Ari Weinzweig, shares his experience with the Yupanqui Pepper: "If you had told me this Yupanqui Pepper had come from one of the most quality-conscious farms in southwest India, I WOULD'VE totally believed you. It totally caught me off guard when I tried it for the first time. Spicy but sensual, deep and complex, interesting and exotic; it's got all sorts of cool things going on, including a little finish of citrus. The flavor stays so nicely on my palate!"

The YUPANQUI FAMILY is focused on producing the Best Gourmet Peppercorns. Family-owned and operated by three generations of Farmers, they supply their Award-Winning Peppercorns (PRIX EPICURES De L'Epicerie Fine – Awarded by Le Monde de L'épicerie Fine, Paris, in 2021) to Top Chefs, Michelin-rated restaurants, 5-star resorts, and Cruise lines around the World. Finally, and at the request of many lovers of high-level cuisine, the family decided to make their treasure known.

We are founders of the first Black Pepper Research Center in Latin America, where we experiment with different methods of development, production, tasting, sowing, and symbiosis between plant and pattern. Likewise, we incorporate sensorial elements never before used in whole black pepper, such as Selected Classical Music Baths, Sea Breeze Collected at Night, Beneficial Microorganisms among others. Blind tasters have rated the Yupanqui peppercorns as "An unprecedented Gourmet Peppercorn in sensory versatility, strong flavor, incomparable culinary experience."

Three generations of farmers from Cuzco have a strong heritage rich in agricultural traditions immersed in a profound respect for nature. We keep intact our Ancestral Traditions from our Inca lineage, adapting these practices, and rituals to the farming of purely tropical culture in Ecuador, with results that break all previous schemes on specialty peppercorns.

We live and die for our crops, so we are worried about producing just and only the Best Peppercorns, and it is this permanent concern that is the seed of our constant innovation giving birth to various creations based on the organic peppercorns that our mother plants produce; compositions that border on the artistic.

The BLACK IMPERIAL peppercorns refill gives us notes of Chocolate, Orange peel, and Coffee, Vanilla. Its INCREDIBLE AROMA immediately EXCITES any passionate about gastronomy.
