Understanding Pepperberry

Native to Australia, the Pepperberry plant (Tasmannia lanceolata) is a hardy evergreen shrub that thrives in the cool, temperate regions of Tasmania and southern mainland Australia. Traditionally, Indigenous communities have valued Pepperberry for both its culinary and medicinal uses, incorporating its leaves and berries into their cooking for generations.

Terrablendz Ground Pepperberry brings this rich heritage to your kitchen, offering a naturally aromatic and mildly spicy ingredient that enhances everything it touches.
