The same plant that produces White peppercorns also produces both black and green peppercorns, Piper Nigrum. The difference depends on when the pepper berries are picked and how they are handled.

From India, these peppercorns have a slightly hotter flavor and keep dark specks out of light colored dishes and sauces. They are the preferred pepper in much of the world. White pepper actually comes from the same species of plant as black peppercorns, but has been allowed to fully ripen and have had the black outer husk removed. See Piper nigrum above.

Peppercorn plant leaf with young peppercornsPiper nigrum: The peppercorn plant belongs to the piperaceae plant family. It is a woody evergreen vine that grows up to 11 yards tall and has dark-green, broad, somewhat oval shaped leaves. It uses aerial roots to help it cling to, and climb trees. 

Peppercorn plants have small white flowers that bloom in clusters of up to 150 florets and hang down a spike. These flowers then ripen into the little berries that we know as peppercorns. It takes several years for a young plant to flower and begin to produce fruit (the peppercorns). 

Since peppercorn plants prefer a hot, humid, tropical environment, they are mostly produced in India, although they are produced in Indonesia, and Brazil. Black pepper often takes on the name of the region where it was produced, or the port it was exported from.  Malabar, Tellicherry, Singapore, Bangkok, Sarawak, and Belém are common examples of this. 

Three different kinds of peppercorns are produced by Piper nigrum: Black, white, and green. 

 
These pepper berries will be ready to harvest for white peppercorns once they all fully mature and turn red. Maturing peppercorns on the plant
