Fresh, fragrant and full of flavour!
Aussie PepperAussie Pepper is family owned and operated and proud to grow premium Australian pepper which is pesticide free and sustainably farmed at Silkwood, near Innisfail in Tropical North Queensland.
Donna Campagnolo continues the family tradition of being committed to growing high quality pepper that will enhance the flavour of any food.
In 1986, Louis and Levis Campagnolo - "L & L Pepper" - started planting piper nigrum plants and progressed to establish the first and only commercial pepper farm in Australia. Whilst most pepper is grown in Southern India, Indonesia and Malaysia, the latitude and climatic conditions in this pocket of Australia has allowed this crop to thrive with their experience and care.

The Daintree is a rainy place.
Daintree TeaThe Nicholas family started the Daintree Tea Company in 1978 with the planting of the Cubbagudta (rainy place) tea plantation.
Greg Nicholas continues to operate this Australian tea business today and employs locals in various roles to process and pack the tea on site in the middle of the Daintree rainforest.
There are approximately 4km of hedge per hectare and the tea is mechanically harvested. Only the tender tips are taken and then processed and packaged on the farm. The moist warm climate of the Daintree Rainforest with nearly 4000mm of rainfall per year and an average temperature range of 25 to 35 degrees, make it ideal for growing the tea plant, Camellia sinensis.

Best pepper
Best black pepper you can get and a fair price for how quality it is. I've tried many differen't types of black pepper kampot, telicherry, various differen't brands and quality and this is the best imo.
I'm also super happy they started offering white pepper because i find it hard to find a decent quality white pepper when so much of it is either stale or not the right flavour profile. This stuff is by far the best white pepper i've gotten now. Exactly how white pepper should be.

Love this tea
I have been drinking Daintree Tea for about 20 years, if that doesn't speak for itself, I don't know what would. I love this tea and always drink it. A friend of mine said it was the nicest tea she had ever tasted. I love the loose leaf kind.

Daintree Tea is the best
We drink a lot of tea, and we really love Daintree Tea. It’s a strong tea which we enjoy. When we travel we pack Daintree to take with us, so we don’t have to lower our standards and drink something we don’t enjoy. Great service from the team fulfilling our order too.

Love Silkwood pepper
We used to buy Silkwood pepper while we were living in the north and now enjoy ordering on line. Fast, efficient service and still tastes great

Great pepper. Way better than what you can get at the shop.
This pepper is very high quality, fragrant and full of flavour. So much nicer to the black pepper you buy at the shop. Any serious chef would only use pepper of this quality.
Also, i'm very happy to see they now offer it in a white pepper version. Hard to find decent white pepper.

The gun pepper
Cracked, not crumbled powder like the chain stores do. That's why I'm back buying more :)
