Olivier Rœllinger's words
"Poivre de cassis" draws its true strength from the Burgundy region, with its fine food and fertile land. The fruity, floral, and spicy notes in Burgundy blackcurrant pepper make it ideal for both savoury and sweet dishes.
The Burgundy blackcurrant pepper is particularly delicious. It is spicy without being overpowering, and they are tangy like English sweets.

Story
Blackcurrant bushes thrive on the gentle slopes of the vineyards in Burgundy, and the region has long been the French leader in blackcurrant production. Blackcurrant pepper first came into existence in 2005 when farmers found themselves with a glut of fruit and needed to find a new way to market black currant buds. Black currant buds are picked in January - blackcurrant bushes are among the first fruit trees to bud. The buds are then sorted, dehydrated, then ground into a powder to make black currant pepper.
