MG1: two letters and a number that mark the highest grade of Malabar black pepper. Place des Épices selects its organic Black Peppercorn Malabar, from the Malabar Coast of India, for dark, full berries and an exceptional aromatic profile. Smooth and surprisingly refined on the nose, the pepper shows a powerful yet measured presence on the palate, then a long, lingering finish. Grind it over a rib of beef, or into a slow-cooked stew.
