Geographic indication (Indian label)

The Malabar coastal strip stretches across the Indian states of Kerala and Karnataka. A large part of this area was part of the former kingdom of Keralapoutra, where first the Portuguese, then the Dutch, the French and the British exerted their influence. It was already an important trading center three thousand years before Christ, and therefore has a very mixed population. It is known as the cradle of pepper and the pepper trade, which began more than two millennia before our era with the first trade via land routes between the Egyptians and the inhabitants of 'Malabar'.

Around the beginning of the era, other peoples also interfered in trade on Malabar, both by land and by sea, from the moment that the wind systems in the Indian Ocean could be understood and structured trade routes could be opened. The tradition of Malabar pepper goes back that far. In addition to this famous blend, the Malabar Coast has three Tellicherry selections, the Tellicherry Bold, the Tellicherry Garbled Extra Bold  and the Tellicherry Garbled Extra Special Bold (TGESB), including the Tellicherry from Wayanad, an elevated game reserve.
