Dried pink peppercorns are not from the pepper vine, but come from a “Shinus” species of tree. These Shinus terebinthifolius peppercorns have a sweet, almost piney flavour which resembles Juniper and is different from true Pink Pepper (Piper nigrum) that is only ever sold in brine.
The Pink Peppercorns Herbies sell are considered safe to consume by FSANZ and the USFDA.
*NB: Discolouration of some peppercorns is an unavoidable result of steam sterilisation required by Australian Quarantine on importation.
