Cubeb Berries (Piper cubeba) are aromatic, tailed peppercorns with a peppery bite and warm allspice-like notes. They shine as a gin botanical and add depth to spice rubs, tagines, soups and baked goods. Lightly crushing or grinding the berries releases a bright, resinous aroma that balances savoury and sweet dishes. A handy pantry spice for adventurous cooks and small-batch infusions.
♡ Why we love it: Distinct flavour that sits between black pepper and allspice, so one jar works across savoury and dessert recipes. Excellent for DIY gin and spiced syrups, and easy to grind fresh for the most fragrant results.
Size: 100g.
