This Phú Quôc (phu quoc) pepper comes from the Vietnamese island of Phu Quôc. The pepper has been cultivated in a traditional way, without chemical aids, mainly by women since the 1950s.

Pepper has been cultivated in a traditional way on the Vietnamese island of Phú Quốc since the early nineteenth century. Pepper cultivation was introduced by the Chinese, but has greatly improved under French management, just as happened in Kampot in neighboring Cambodia.

Phú Quốc is located in the province of Kiên Giang, and with approximately 590 square kilometers is the largest island in Vietnam. It is part of an archipelago of 22 islands, and is closer to the coast of Cambodia than that of Vietnam. The island has more than 100,000 inhabitants. The pepper is one of the sources of income, next to tourism and the famous nuoc mâm (fish sauce).

With the support of the government, the traditional way in which the pepper is grown on Phú Quốc is cherished. Since the fifties of the last century, pepper cultivation has mainly become a women's affair due to political developments and the war(s). And it still is on many plantations.

It is a relatively small pepper in Vietnam, as it only makes up 1% of the country's total pepper harvest, which is on average large-scale and mechanized. Unlike the pepper from Bà Rịa-Vũng Tàu, on the east coast, east of Ho Chi Minh City, the Phú Quốc pepper has not yet been eligible for a geographical indication (GI).

We offer you the white Phú Quốc pepper, Tiêu sọ đỏ Phú Quốc, the red Phú Quốc pepper, Hạt tiêu chín đỏ Phú Quốc, and this black Hạt tiêu đỏ Phú Quốc.

Use

The pepper has various, subtle aromas including fruit (mango/raspberry) and cocoa, and a slightly sour accent. This makes the pepper suitable for all types of meat (red and white), fruit salads and dishes containing chocolate, even desserts.

Although the pepper also combines well with white fish, squid and squid, we generally recommend the milder white Phu Quoc for those combinations.
