Cubeb berries, also called Java pepper or tailed pepper, are native to the Spice Islands and are primarily harvested in Indonesia. The berries have an aromatic fragrance with a slight bitter and peppery flavor. Used in Indonesian curries, Cubeb is sometimes found as an ingredient in the Moroccan spice blend Ras el Hanout. These berries can be used in African tagines and work well with meat and vegetable dishes. Cubeb berries are also considered to be an ideal secret ingredient when used as a pepper substitute in spiced biscuits, gingerbreads and sausages.

FAQ
How old are these spices?
We purchase what we need every year right after the spices are harvested. These spices are as fresh as you can get. They are not sitting in a warehouse for multiple years. The oldest spices we carry will be one year old compared to the commodity market which warehouses spices for 10+ years before selling them to you.
