- Whole black peppercorns for freshly ground flavour
- Four refills per envelope
- 64g (2.3 oz) total per envelope

Your everyday reach-for pepper
Keep BBBB close to the stove or on the table. A fresh twist brings its bright aroma and lasting bite to the food you cook every day. No special occasion required.
Our first edition comes from a generational, family-run farm in Phu Quoc, an island off of Vietnam’s southern coast.
Sea breezes and year-round humidity feed the vines and shape the flavor of the pepper, alongside the biodiversity growing around them.
The family hand-selects ripe peppercorns and dries them naturally in the sun.
Every BBBB edition is fully traceable: same standard, new place on the map.

FAQ
What makes BBBB so special?
Grocery store pepper is often anonymous. Mass-farmed, sourced from wherever's cheapest, and left to sit for a long time before it reaches you.
BBBB is the opposite. Every batch comes from a small, curated farm, hand-vetted and traceable. You'll always know exactly what you're getting.
Why does BBBB's origin change with each edition, and where's it from right now?
Each edition of BBBB comes from a single, named origin in Asia. That means a new place on the map to try each time. Right now, it's a family-run farm on Phu Quoc, an island off of Vietnam's southern coast chosen for its soil and biodiversity.
When do I use BBBB versus Debut Blend or Kiri Smoke?
Most people reach for BBBB for everyday cooking, and Debut Blend or Kiri Smoke for finishing touches or special occasions. Different job, same standard, so there's no wrong choice.
How should I use BBBB?
Liberally! Layer it into your sauces, grind it over mains, finish it over dessert. Be the magician of your own kitchen: BBBB is happy to go wherever your curiosity takes it.
How should I store BBBB?
Keep it in a cool, dry place. Each refill sachet holds 16g/0.56oz. Whole peppercorns keep for 3–4 years, though for best aroma, use within a year of your harvest edition.
Can I put my BBBB in any pepper grinder?
Technically, yes, you'll still get good pepper. But that's a bit like eating soup with a fork: possible, just a worse way to do it. Piper Oudo is built to unlock everything BBBB and other Piper pepper have to offer, down to the last crack. Use another grinder if you insist. We won't judge (much).
