1001 Organic Signature

This set captures the authentic taste of Zanzibar. Our award-winning black pepper and true Ceylon cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum) from the island’s tropical forests are among our most loved spices. The pepper impresses with its fine heat and deep aroma, while the cinnamon delights with its natural sweetness and warm spice – a perfect duo that no kitchen should be without.

A gift from which not only the recipient will benefit. With a gift set from 1001 Organic, you can actively contribute to a better world. Through fair business conditions and access to attractive niche markets, our smallholder farmers and their families can benefit from a higher standard of living. 1001 Organic invests in training and infrastructure for the smallholder farmers and supports the cooperatives in professionalization and conversion to certified organic production.

The pepper plant is a vine growing on forest trees or supporting trees. Its broad shiny green leaves are alternately arranged. The small flowers are in dense slender spikes of about 50 blossoms each. The fresh green peppercorns are harvested by hand and blanched in hot water for 10 minutes until it becomes dark green and then sun dried. Red, white or black pepper origins from the same plant. Our farmers are mainly on the island of Zanzibar and Tanga.

Cinnamon is an evergreen tree characterized by oval-shaped leaves, thick bark, and berry fruit. The branches are harvested manually with a machete. After harvesting, the cinnamon needs to be procced immediately while the bark is still wet. The cut branches are processed by scraping off the outer bark before the cinnamon layer is separated from the wooden core of the branch. After that, we prepare either small chips or hand-roll the bark into beautiful quills. Our farmers are mainly on the island of Zanzibar and Tanga.
