Bourbon Smoked Madagascar Wild Peppercorns

Get ready to experience pepper like never before. Our Bourbon Smoked Wild Madagascar Peppercorns are whole, fragrant beauties packed with bold, complex flavors that will transform your cooking. Carefully infused with Colorado Springs’ own Axe and The Oak Distillery bourbon, these peppercorns capture the spirit’s rich notes of oak, vanilla bean, caramel, and warm cornbread. Once they’ve soaked up every bit of that bourbon goodness, we slow-smoke them for 12 hours, layering in a deep, smoky aroma that will make each grind a culinary adventure.

These aren’t just any peppercorns—they’re earthy, slightly herby, and incredibly potent, with a subtle spice that’s all about flavor rather than heat. Each grind releases a symphony of bourbon-soaked smokiness and natural spice, so make sure you have a quality pepper grinder on hand to fully enjoy the experience. Trust us, a little goes a long way, and once you try these, you’ll wonder how you ever settled for ordinary pepper.
