Black Pepper Powder

Sohmrit, commonly known as black pepper powder, is another one of the multiple key spice attractions that grow in Meghalaya’s serene Khasi hills. The climatic condition of the North East Indian state is prolific for the growth and nurturing of this globally popular spice. The right amount of rainfall, slightly warmer weather in summers, and extremely cold temperatures throughout the year help our black pepper flourish. The reason behind these top-notch benefits is the presence of a compound called ‘piperine’ that is found in our spice. Black pepper powder had turned out to be a crop offering high yields for our farmers to make a steady living.
