I suspect that, like Daniel, i was sold Ashanti pepper. However, it 
had hardly any flavor.
The photo of cubebs on the wikipedia page for cubebs is what i was 
sold by Lhasa Karnak. I can assure you that they are NOT cubebs. No 
doubt the poor sucker who uploaded the photo had been sold them under 
the name of cubeb.

The photo on Gernot Katzers Cubeb page shows REAL cubebs.

Thanks to everyone who has posted so far. I suspect a few have also 
been sold Ashanti pepper as cubeb. But there may be some REAL cubeb 
still out there.
