Cubeb Berries (Piper cubeba) are fragrant, tailed peppercorns used to bring a peppery, warm-spiced note to cooking and infusions. They are especially popular as a gin botanical and also work well in tagines, stews, rubs, and spiced baking. Crushing the berries just before use helps release their bright, resinous aroma. This 100g size is ideal for small-batch kitchen work and infusion trials.
