This is a wonderful blend of peppercorn. The only problem I had occasionally was the larger berries sometimes don't fit in my pepper mill. Most of the time I am grinding it in a coffee grinder or my mortar and pestil though, so I don't have the problem often. Highly recommended!

I was looking for a mix like McCormicks Medley blend which has the 4 types of peppercorns, coriander and allspice. This was the closest I could find, minus the allspice. This blend has great flavor. The only problem is the coriander is so large that it's hard to get into the grinder and the grinder gets plugged up, having to reverse grind. I do have a very nice William Bounds grinder, so it's not the grinders fault.

The blend is beautiful, flavorful and gives of an incredibly fresh and strong pepper scent when ground. The difference between these corns and those bought in a typical supermarket was evident. I was pleased there were almost no broken corns or husk flakes in the bag. The packaging needs to be rethought, though. The peppercorns come in a sealed cellophane bag that isn't really user friendly. Something self sealing would be preferable. If you try and tear off a corner on this bag, the cellophane doesn't want to stop tearing when you do. Scissors are the best way to open and you'll need to find an airtight container to store the rest after filling the grinder. I'll certainly be purchasing these again.

This is a great place to get seasonings. The peppercorns have great flavor, grind well, and are attractive on the table. They have the right amount of "zing". We are a family that loves pepper on our food and this mix meets our needs for meat, vegetables and salads. We find the supply always fresh when we order.

I highly recommend this product to anyone that enjoys rich flavor with their meals to order the "Five Peppercorn Mix". The peppercorns in this mix are truly delicious and they work well in the new peppercorn grinder I purchased to give to my husband for his birthday. We have used the peppercorns on steaks, salads, pasta and just about everything we cook to enhance the flavor of our meals. Again, this product is wonderful and you will not be disappointed. I was also impressed with the speed and great packaging when it arrived. Bon Appetite! Tricia

We were extremely pleased with the aroma and flavor of this product. We hwve made a tag with the name and source to reorder in the future.

I found this product to be a nice tasting pepper blend and would recommend it to all of those who enjoy the fresh flavor of ground pepper.

This is a great blend of flavors, and I'm highly satisfied with this product. However I do wish there were more pink peppercorns in the packaging which would've added a little more sweetness to the blend and soften some of the "bite" in this mix. Don't get me wrong, I love the heat of black & white pepper, but in this blend I was hoping for something a little more distinctive. Nonetheless, this is a great value. The shipping took a little longer than I thought- 3 to 5 days ended up being 8 (not incl weekend). I also bought the Szechuan peppercorns to roast up and add to this blend...that *should* work out nicely! Overall a dependable seller. Good luck!

The problem(s) with preground supermarket pepper is that the peppercorns are the cheapest that they can buy...and the preground product has already oxidized and lost all its freshness, potency, and breadth...which means you end up using much more of it than fresh-ground, and even then the flavor profile is flat and overpowering at the same time.

This mix is the definition of "peppery"...like the way you would describe a certain note in a fine wine or French perfume...and the subtle zest really opens the other flavors of the dish the way fresh herbs from a garden do.

This is a LOT of peppercorns. They're so pretty, I was tempted to put them in a clear glass bowl for display. Flavor just fine. Great product.
