Pepper Farms

We had a wonderful time in Kep, the smallest and least populous province of Cambodia. It was founded as a seaside retreat by French colonizers in 1908 and has a lot of charm and history. We stayed in a bungalow at a French owned boutique resort, with a nice pool and friendly staff.

One of the highlights of our trip was visiting a pepper farm. We learned that Kep is famous for its Kampot pepper, which is considered one of the best peppers in the world. We took a tour of Sothy’s Plantation, and saw how they grow and process different varieties of pepper, such as black, red, white and green. We also tasted some of their products and bought some tea to take home.Leer más
