Classification: PGI (Protected Geographical Indication)
Considered one of the most prestigious peppers in the world, Kampot White Pepper is produced by removing the outer skin of fully ripe red peppercorns. This meticulous process reveals the "heart" of the pepper, resulting in a spice that is exceptionally refined, powerful, and clean on the palate.

Heat: Delivers a sharp, immediate, and lingering warmth.
