The Vin Dinh is a false pepper. It is harvested at the end of the year from a tree that grows spontaneously in the mountain ranges of the Indochinese peninsula. Its name - the treetop pepper - comes from the fact that it is found at the very top of the trees. Botanically close to the Chinese Szechuan or the Japanese Sansho, it expresses itself more subtly in citrus notes, a touch of clementine, with a hint of fresh aniseed.
