Chiloe Pepper - Cofrapep

It is also found under the name of sacred pepper, wild pepper from Patagonia, sea pepper, Mapuche pepper, Indian pepper, wild pepper from Patagonia, etc.

Chiloe Bay is a false pepper, fruit of the Drimys Winteri tree, one of the oldest trees on the planet, close cousin of Tasmanian Bay.

The term chiloé comes from the island of Chiloé in Chile, where it is found almost everywhere. The inhabitants of the island call it “Pimienta chilota”, translation “Chiloe pepper”, because it looks a bit like a red pepper seed: round, wrinkled and brown.

On the nose, its fragrance is delicate and fragrant, slightly tart, reminiscent of cranberry and hibiscus.

It is not very spicy as a starter, then goes through several vegetable, fruity and empyreumatic flavors, slightly camphor, with a sweet flavor of lemony candied fruit.
