Description

Discover the fresh citrus aroma of Lemon Myrtle, a premium dried herb from Australia known for its intense lemon fragrance and elegant flavour. Made from the leaves of Backhousia citriodora, Lemon Myrtle brings a clean, vibrant citrus note to both savoury and sweet recipes.

Its pronounced lemon character makes it especially useful in fish and seafood dishes, where it adds freshness without the acidity of lemon juice. It also pairs beautifully with white meat, poultry, soups, broths, sauces, marinades and homemade dressings.

Lemon Myrtle is also a wonderful ingredient for desserts. Use a small amount to flavour fruit salads, ice creams, sorbets, ganache, chocolate desserts or homemade syrups. Because the aroma is naturally powerful, start with a small pinch and adjust to taste.

Compagnie Française des Poivres et Epices is a French specialist in exceptional peppers, spices, chillies, salts and aromatic ingredients sourced from carefully selected producers around the world.

Born in Paris from a passion for gastronomy and a deep knowledge of spices, the company focuses on discovering distinctive varieties with character, provenance and outstanding aromatic qualities. Its range extends far beyond everyday black pepper, introducing food lovers to remarkable peppers, berries and spices from different culinary regions of the world.

Exceptional peppers and spices from around the world

One of the defining qualities of Compagnie Française des Poivres et Epices is its approach to sourcing. The company works directly with plantations and producers and places particular importance on traceability, harvest quality and careful selection.

Peppercorns are hand-picked and sorted, while products are selected from recent harvests rather than undergoing prolonged storage or being mixed with ingredients from different origins. This approach helps preserve the distinctive aromas and flavours associated with individual varieties and terroirs.

The collection includes everything from classic and rare peppers to chilli peppers, Ceylon cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, aromatic herbs, spice blends, curries and speciality salts.

Quality, traceability and responsible sourcing

Compagnie Française des Poivres et Epices combines its focus on flavour with an environmentally conscious approach. The company uses reusable packaging and states that the majority of its peppers and spices are certified organic by organisations including Ecocert. It also maintains direct relationships with producers and plantations across more than 30 countries.

For cooks who enjoy exploring ingredients beyond ordinary supermarket spices, the brand offers an opportunity to discover how the origin, variety and harvest of pepper and spices can influence their aroma and flavour.
