What you need to know
Khu Tuong is an organized area where unique cultivation traditions have developed over 300 years.
At the plantations you will see:
- Two-meter pepper trees and neatly tied bushes.
- The manual harvesting process, which is actively underway from February to July.
- The stages of traditional peppercorn drying under the hot tropical sun.
Visitors are offered the chance to explore various varieties: black, white, red, and the unusual garlic pepper. The local product is considered exclusive due to the island's red basalt soil, which gives it a special flavor profile.
