These and the other pepper varieties I’ve purchased from the RTE has leveled up my cooking to zesty new heights! Coming from sad pre-milled box peppers (as I was) these are a sensory revelation.
There is a noticeable difference in the flavor and fragrance of these Reluctant Trading Experiment Tellicherry Whole Peppercorns. I've tried other brands, but these are the best. Delicious. Very fresh, fragrant and flavorful. The packaging is great. I will be ordering more to give as gifts.
My original pepper mill from Reluctant Trading recently met its untimely demise via cat shenanigans. While the original is no longer available, I found this beautiful mill. It’s very well made and is cat approved.
Decided to spend some time this winter taking my spice and herb skills to the next level. My go-to is pepper. Found Reluctant Trading on the web while searching for the world's best pepper corns. Ordered the Tellicherry corns. My interface with RT has been excellent (notifications, tracking shipment, follow-up). I like a larger crack to my pepper. My mill didn't perform well with these premium corns so I ordered the 11.5" Marseille mill from RT. The mill arrived and I immediately filled it with the Tellicherry corns. To call my experience with these corns paired with this mill amazing is an understatement. If you love pepper as much as I do, buy the corns, buy the mill, and live happily ever after. Looking forward to my next delivery from RT which includes the Red Long Pepper, Ceylon Cinnamon Bark, and the Microplane Spice Mill. I bet they're awesome as well.
I discovered Reluctant Trading last year, and loved your product so much I'm re-ordering. And I'll continue as long as you keep offering such a delicious product!
Thank you very much.

P.S. I live in Chicago. I'd be happy to just drop by and pick up an order instead of you having to send it.... Just a thought.
I have been through quiet a few pepper grinders over the years. My husband is an avid bbq cook that competes in competitions and loves to use freshly ground pepper. He told me this is by far the best grinder he has ever used. His only gripe is that the level of coarseness dial is at the bottom which can create a cross contamination concern while handling meat. Other than that, it is sharp, consistent and works like a charm. We love it!!!
I can’t stand restaurant pepper out of those pepper shakers after trying these peppercorns!

We love Tellicherry pepper and only use other peppercorns when absolutely necessary, like when we need to order new telllicherry.
First time ordering peppercorns. Excellent quality and taste. Would definitely repurchase.
Great service, nice packaging, tasty peppercorns. Thanks.
I am a very happy custom your company,, it's a family thing. My son is also a customer of yours. Thanks!
I always test authentic peppercorns by my sneezing (into my sleeve, of course) on grinding them...and voila!! Tellicherry passed my sneeze test 😺

Similar to when I run low on olive oil in my house, I now get nervous when my smoked peppercorn and Icelandic salt supply get low…because they are both staples in my kitchen now. Thanks! :)
Grates whole nutmeg to a fine aromatic powder with very little effort. Elegant design, good engineering, and excellent results--far outstrips other spice grinders I've used.
Gotta have our sea salt. We love the steak seasoning for vegan burgers. And the lemon pepper is great on vegan chicken plus we add to salads for a little zing. Customer for life!
Best red pepper flakes I’ve ever purchased. Fresher than any I’ve tried before. Love your products!!
The smoothest grinder to date. And flavor of the peppercorns are so good.
