After a recent discussion about Kampot pepper, I ordered some to try.
The pepper mill finally empties so I filled it with the Kampot
peppercorns.

Conclusion: Yes, it is pepper. Perhaps my taste buds are not
sophisticated enough to tell, but why good, I don't think it is any
better than any decent black pepper.

There are different grades of Kampot pepper, do you have the red and
green types? I think it's better than the run of mill (excuse the pun)
pepper out there. I've been to a couple of pepper farms there - there
IS a difference in the taste, but whether it's worth it to you might
be another matter.

I don't use much dried pepper any more, we use the fresh green
immature peppers, more like a vegetable really. I really like it (the
wife doesn't care for any pepper) much more full flavoured than dried
pepper https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/GKEAA...5Z/s-l1600.jpg
