Red Chilli

India is the world's largest producer and exporter of dried red chilli, and the trade runs on named varieties rather than a single commodity grade. Pungency (SHU) and colour (ASTA) move independently: Teja and Sannam are bought for heat, Byadagi and Kashmiri for colour. Allvora supplies each variety whole, stemless, as powder and as flakes, specified to your parameters.

Black Pepper

Indian black pepper is graded two ways: by screen size for the Tellicherry grades, and by bulk density for the Malabar Garbled and GL grades. Buyers choose between them depending on whether pepper is sold on appearance or ground into a blend. Allvora supplies whole pepper across both grading systems, with density, moisture and piperine confirmed before shipment.
