Its aroma is fruity-mild and lightly nutty, with a pleasant, non-intrusive heat. A balanced, elegant pepper for the mill.

It goes very well in marinades, hearty stews as well as with fried and grilled meat. It also harmonises excellently with poultry, fish, sauces and salads. Best ground fresh in the mill just before the dish is served.
