Customer Rating: Summary: Like Discovering Fresh Ground Pepper All Over Again Comment: This is my first time buying Tellicherry peppercorns and I am impressed!
I loaded up my new Unicorn Magnum Plus with these peppercorns, ground some on various foods, and WOW! It's like I'm discovering the joys of fresh-cracked pepper for the first time all over again. I can't wait to season some nice thick steaks with this.
The flavor is very bold compared to the McCormick peppercorns I had been using. And from what I gather, this is a great price for Tellicherry peppercorns.
My only concern is that it will take me and my wife a _long_ time to go through two pounds of this stuff. I actually purchased the two 1-Pound Bags instead of the one big glass jar. At the time I purchased, that was actually a little bit cheaper by ounce. Also, it comes in two packages, and the unopened one seems to be sealed well. Still, I plan on vacuum packing the packages between refills to help keep the flavor fresh.
I can tell you this: I'll never again buy cheap pepper. Customer Rating: Summary: Great price for the most highly regarded peppercorns Comment: Any professional or amateur chef worth his/her salt would not consider using any other black pepper than Tellicherry pepper the people from the town Tellichery are very dedicated and proud of their production of the worlds finest Black peppercorns I have spoken to enthusiastic native, This the best price I have found Customer Rating: Summary: Great Pepper at a Reasonable Price Comment: After trying to find whole peppercorns in bulk in grocery markets at anything but outrageous prices, Amazon came through with a reasonable price. Peppercorns are no longer inexpensive, but at least with Amazon, one doesn't have to feel ripped off.India Tree Tellicherry Pepper, 2.3 lb Customer Rating: Summary: Best Buy Comment: The 2.3 lb jar is the best buy I have seen for the Tellicherry Pepper. Customer Rating: Summary: Wonderful flavor Comment: Steaks, soups, and all other expensive and carefully prepared food deserve the best ingredients and condiments. Regarding pepper, our family strongly favors coarsely ground peppercorns. I am inclined to India Tree brand Tellicherry because: they are as close to the source as one can find; they offer very economical packaging; there is nothing but peppercorns in the package (what is in ground pepper?); there is absolutely no unknown "sediment" at the bottom of the container; they are solely committed to supplying these peppercorns; and they have provided a most memorable enhancement of fine food. Note that white tellicherry peppercorns are nothing but black peppercorns with the very tasty and pungent black husk removed. To me, mixing black and white Tellicherry is merely dilution of the essential flavor.
