São Tomé Organic Black Pepper comes from one of the world’s smallest countries. It is located off the coast of Gabon. In this exceptional natural setting, we work in partnership with the island’s residents. In this way, we support a local cooperative that grows and processes high-quality organic peppers.

Thanks to its tropical climate and rich biodiversity, the island offers ideal conditions for growing pepper. In fact, much of the island is covered by lush jungle.

An organic pepper with intense aromas

Organic black pepper from São Tomé has both powerful and fresh aromas. It also features intense herbal notes. As a result, it pairs perfectly with poultry and white meats.

Organic São Tomé black pepper can take on different colors depending on the stage of processing. It ranges from a matte grayish-brown to a pale ivory white. When ground, the white pepper becomes a creamy to grayish powder. Small pieces may also be present, which is natural for this product.

Did you know?

At the beginning of the 20th century, pepper was still unknown in São Tomé. At that time, the island’s main crop was cocoa. In fact, it was one of the most important crops in the colonies. That is why the island was nicknamed «the chocolate island.».
