Black pepper (Piper nigrum L.) (Family: Piperaceae) is a perennial vine grown for its berries
extensively used as spice and in medicine. Regarded as the “King of spices,” black pepper is
incredibly popular among spices since ancient times.
Peppercorn is native to the tropical evergreen rain forest of South Indian Kerala state, from where
it spread to rest of the world through Indian and Arab traders. Pepper fruit, also known as the
peppercorn, is actually a berry obtained from the pepper plant. CoCoSPICE black pepper is sourced
