Next time you grind black pepper on steak, you’re tasting a micro-climate. The Western-Ghats slopes of Wayanad give corns a monsoon soak, 5-day sun-cure and bold 630 g/l grade—exactly the spec chefs bid on at Kochi auction. Our 5-in-1 spice gift box lets you cook with that same punch without leaving your kitchen.
1. What “Malabar-Grade” Actually Means
It’s not a marketing tag—it’s a size and oil standard. Corns must pass a 4.75 mm screen and carry ≥2 % volatile oil. Wayanad’s altitude (700–2,100 m) and bamboo-mat curing hit that spec consistently, so traders quote “Malabar extra-bold” at a ₹40–₹60 premium per kg.
2. The Fake Pepper Problem (and How We Beat It)
Indonesian Lampong and Vietnamese mixes often get re-bagged as “Malabar.” We beat the fakes with farm-level traceability: every 50 kg lot is tagged, moisture-tested, and sealed on-site. Importers can QR-trace origin; Amazon can delist fakes on complaint.
-
5-day sun-dry on raised bamboo mats → drives moisture to 7 % without fossil fuels
-
Hand-selection → only 630 g/l+ corns make the cut
4. From Auction to Gift Box—Why Size Matters
Bigger corns = more essential oil = hotter, longer-lasting aroma. When you open our 5-in-1 Wayanad Spice Gift Box, you’re holding the same extra-bold pepper that earned the top bid last Friday. No blends, no shortcuts.

5. Lose the Grade, Lose the Flavour
If farmers abandon the 630 g/l standard, Wayanad pepper slips into generic “Malabar” bulk—prices crash, vines are replaced by rubber. Every gift-box purchase is a direct vote to keep those vines climbing and your pepper grinder singing.
