Notes from Dragonmarsh RE: Cubebs and other Peppers
A few years ago there was a canker fungus on the Szechuan Peppers that
threatened the citrus industry.
The FDA banned it's import for over a year. Then the spice industry
released it for distribution if it was sterilized. This prevented it from
sprouting and releasing the fungus. The Szechuan Peppers is available but it is
not as spicy as before sterilization. The description of the "other"
peppers sounds like Szechuan Peppers .
Cubeb Berry (Piper cubeba) are a complete separate pepper and should not
be confused with Guinea Pepper -Grains of Paradise (Amomum melegeuta).
They do have different tastes.
We do sell all of the above and more on a regular basis. For those
interested in ordering by the pound or more, there is a 20% discount .

not-cubebs were.
