Thekkady Vert has a mild, fresh mint character and a gentle heat.

This green pepper works well with lamb, poultry, fish, light sauces, savoury tarts, Asian vegetables and fruit, and it adds a fresh finish to salads. Suitable for both mortar and pepper mill.

Thekkady Vert is single-origin, meaning the entire harvest comes from the same growing area.

It comes from Kerala in south-western India. In the area around Periyar National Park, old pepper varieties that are at risk of disappearing are cared for and hand-picked by local communities as part of a sustainable, organic management system.

These old varieties contain a considerably higher proportion of essential oils than modern hybrid peppers.
