Geographic indication (Indian label)

The Malabar Coast 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, and subsequently the Dutch, the French, and the British exerted their influence. It was already an important trading center three thousand years before Christ, and partly as a result, it has a very diverse population. It is known as the birthplace of pepper and the pepper trade, which began well over 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 Common Era, other peoples also became involved in trade on Malabar, both by land and by sea, from the moment they were able to understand the wind systems of the Indian Ocean and open structured trade routes. The tradition of Malabar pepper dates back that far. In addition to this famous blend, the Malabar coastal strip 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, a higher-altitude game reserve.
