We have used this brand of black pepper for a long while. Full of flavor and great quality. Every type of pepper we have used has been superlative. Worth the price. Worth a mention is the fantastic customer service. Each time I have reached out, we have received a proper and prompt reply from one of the Owners.

It seemed to me to not have a lot of flavor but it did have a little bit more heat. It wasn’t really any better than what you can get at the grocery store. I won’t be buying it again.

Easy to order, excellent communication with company with regular updates, great peppercorn. I also received green peppercorn as a complimentary gift. Considering quality and rarity of Yupanqui peppercorns, it's a treat. Thank you very much

Thank you, Sergey, for your thoughtful review and for choosing Yupanqui Peppercorns We’re delighted you enjoyed the OPUS H16 Burgundy Pepper Grinder—our rarest creation, harvested at sunset in the rain to the rhythm of classical music. At the moment, OPUS H16 is sold out worldwide. Only limited releases occasionally appear—our signature grinder exclusively at the Yupanqui Store, and the OPUS H16 250g (8.8oz) refill sometimes on Amazon. Its rarity is what makes every edition a true collector’s treasure. We were also happy to share our Green Premium Peppercorns (115g / 4oz) with you as a gift—fresh, citrusy, and beloved by chefs for Italian, French, and Thai cuisine. Your words inspire us to continue our three-generation family mission of growing with soul. Thank you for being part of this journey. – David Yupanqui Third-generation spice & coffee grower @Yupanqui_Pepper

Yupanqui customer service is unparalleled. My wife and I are taste-testing their black pepper and find it to be comparable to or better than the Cambodian pepper we have been using for years.

Thank you so much for this amazing review! We’re delighted to hear that you and your wife are enjoying our gourmet peppercorns. At the Yupanqui family, we believe the best peppercorns should go beyond ordinary flavor; they should deliver depth, purity, and a sensory experience you’ll remember. Our premium peppercorns are grown on our family-owned land, using sustainable farming, harvested at precise moments guided by the moon, and even given classical music baths to preserve their natural harmony. Each peppercorn is hand-selected at its unique stage of ripeness, carefully dried, and packaged to maintain its rich aroma and complex flavor. We’re proud to be award-winning, recognized with the prestigious Prix Epicures trophy in Paris, and honored as the Best Black Pepper in the USA (2025). Chefs, food lovers, and flavor explorers choose Yupanqui Black Imperial peppercorn for its rare intensity, notes of orange peel, tropical fruits, and chocolate, and for the tradition behind every harvest. – David Yupanqui Third-generation spice grower @Yupanqui_Pepper
