White Pepper Brazil
(Piper Nigrum)
Although produced in limited quantities (about 2,000 tons per year) the quality of Brazilian white pepper is good and appreciated on the market place. It is processed between October and November by soaking in water which, in compliance with the latest government regulations, should no longer be freely taken from polluted rivers and streams with obvious positive impact on the quality and safety of the product, even from the microbiological point of view.
