We present our 4 award-winning spices

Since the creation of La Plantation, we have been obsessed with the quality of our products. We have always refused to produce in large quantities, preferring traditional, low-productivity cultivation methods and unique treatment processes for each product to reveal its best organoleptic qualities.

This unique quality – which we can see when a chef, visitor or spice specialist has their eyes twinkling and nostrils flaring when they open a jar of La Plantation spices – is the driving force behind our project.
It is also accompanied by a strong desire to innovate in the products because we are uniquely fortunate to be a producer or to have all the fresh spices at our disposal to concoct remarkable mixtures or sauces.
And all of this is offered in a short circuit to guarantee the freshness of our spices for our consumers… A virtuous circle that is now recognised on the market!

During the last edition of the Gourmet Selection fair, the organisers created the Best of Excellence award, especially for La Plantation. Indeed, they wanted to reward the quality approach and the commitment in the long term and we thank them for this recognition. After three consecutive years of selection of La Plantation’s products by the Best Of jury, including the last prize for the Khmer Roots Sauce, this prize honours our capacity for innovation and the quality of our products.

The social commitment of the project is also a remarkable fact that was highlighted during the award ceremony by Vincent Ferniot, food journalist and president of the Best Of jury. It is therefore with joy and pride that we received this distinction last September and had the chance to share it with our Cambodian collaborators whom we had invited to the show. We owe this award to their daily work on improving our processes to achieve the quality of spices that we offer and that is recognised on the market.

Winner of the Best Of at the Gourmet 2021 trade show, our Fresh Green Kampot Pepper Sauce won over the jury with its herbaceous, subtle and unique flavours of our flagship product. A simple and fun way to discover fresh Kampot Pepper, as it is consumed in Cambodia, ready to use!

As intense in fragrance as in colour, our turmeric with its exceptional curcumin content won the 2021 Épicures d’Or award! As good for your health (combine with Black Kampot Pepper for a great combo) as it is for your taste buds, in smoothies, curries and marinades.

One of our latest creations, the Khmer Roots Sauce won the Best Of award at the Gourmet 2022 exhibition! It is impossible not to fall in love with this preparation which is used as a condiment, a mustard. Quite similar to a piccalilli sauce, it goes very well with smoked salmon, hard cheeses, and to spice up a salad dressing. Don’t hesitate to test your own combinations, by bringing it directly to the table!

Our exclusive creation was awarded the Prix Épicures du Monde de l’Épicerie Fine in 2020. Iconic, this grain that exposes in the mouth quickly becomes addictive… Just read the reviews! It can be eaten as an aperitif or for dessert, and adds a fresh, peppery and salty touch to your favourite dishes.
