No one plants it. The Black Peppercorn Voatsiperifery from Place des Épices is a wild pepper that grows freely in the humid tropical forests of Madagascar, where local villagers harvest it by hand. Not to be confused with cubeb, it offers woody, citrusy, and floral notes, with a fresh, lingering heat. Grind it over scallops or a white fish, or over slices of pineapple or mango.
