Gourmet Grind Black Pepper is uniform in size, which allows for a consistent quality end product. Its largest benefit is that it is a premium pepper product that lacks dust and that can be used both in table top shakers or for cooking.

Black pepper is a flowering vine in the family Piperaceae, cultivated for its fruit, known as a peppercorn, which is usually dried and used as a spice and seasoning. When fresh and fully mature, the fruit is about 5 mm in diameter and dark red, and contains a single seed, like all drupes. Peppercorns and the ground pepper derived from them may be described simply as pepper, or more precisely as black pepper, green pepper, or white pepper.
