TGSEB Black Pepper: 600+ G/L, Solid Core, Malabar Coast Export

Grown on the high-altitude slopes of Kerala's Malabar Coast and the Western Ghats, TGSEB pepper is graded to a bulk density of 600 grams per litre and above — well clear of the 400–500 g/L typical of standard FAQ-grade pepper. The number matters because it tracks how solid the berry actually is: a hollow or light corn reads low, a dense one reads high. Each lot is sieved to a minimum 4.75 mm, with moisture held under 10%, extraneous matter under 0.5%, and light berries under 3%.

Volatile essential oils run 4–5.5% and piperine content 4–6%, tested against Sudan dye and heavy-metal contamination and processed under ISO 22000 and Spices Board of India certification. Packaging spans 250 g and 500 g retail pouches to 25 kg multi-wall Kraft or food-grade PP liner bags, shipped FOB from JNPT or Mundra from a minimum of 500 kg.
