Four of the world's best pepper varieties pack serious heat, along with subtle notes of fruit. Unleashing the power of these peppers makes a rare steak sizzle and a Moroccan tagine transport you to Marrakech, in just one bite.

Here's what you get:

  • 0.8 oz Long Pepper (hot and more pungent than ordinary black pepper)
  • 1.3 oz Grains of Paradise (a uniquely zesty flavor with floral, coriander, and cardamom notes)
  • 0.6 oz Freeze Dried Green Pepper (freeze-dried to preserve its smooth texture and bright color, green pepper has a light aroma and fresh spiciness)
  • 0.8 oz Cubeb Pepper (also known as tailed pepper, cubeb pepper has a complex flavor that changes from piney to allspice-like when cooked)

Among kitchen alchemists like Ferran Adrià, Wylie Dufresne (WD-50), and Corey Lee (The French Laundry and Benu), Le Sanctuaire's wildly inventive Jing Tio is muse, collaborator, and fellow magician. Tio's ingenious finds—exotic spices, esoteric cookbooks, and outrageous tools—have made him a connoisseur with a distinctly culinary cult following.

Spice of Life

Don't let the cubeb pepper fool you. It may look like an everyday black variety (with the exception of its little tail), but the taste will blow you away, says Le Sanctuaire's Jing Tio. "It's aromatic, camphorous, and tangy, with hints of mint and floral." These days the cubeb is rare, and a perfect compliment to a lamb tagine. Long Cru Madura peppercorns' gingery notes add a depth of flavor that goes beyond other black peppers. Green freeze-dried whole peppercorns create a burst of bright flavor in your mouth, hitting high notes in omelets and salads. And with Grains of Paradise, the pungent black pepper is accented by a touch of fruit.
