When ground, the dark-brown-to-black, deep-set wrinkled peppercorns has a distinct peppery flavor with deep, earthy flavor and aroma that can be blended into almost any dish.

Terrible pepper grinder
If you have it on minimum on the grind dial, hardly any comes out. You have to grind it about 30 times to get a small amount of pepper to come out. If you put it on even a small increase on the dial, you get hard pieces of peppercorn coming out! Just awful! You think being McCormick, which is a namebrand, it would be better. The only good thing I can say, is that you can remove the top & add more peppercorns when it’s empty.

Soooooo close...
I really LIKE these & have bought all the different peppercorn flavor grinders. But I would LOVE them if they were REFILLABLE... Come on, McCormick, while the rest of us are trying to make LESS trash/pollution, you insist on selling these one-hit wonders that are sadly useless when the peppercorns are gone! Please, make them REFILLABLE... the planet will love you for it

Nothing fancy but works great
Bought this because all the other large refill jars of pepper were sold out. Honestly, this grinds better than my fancy pepper grinder and is less messy too (my other one leaves pepper everywhere).

Ms.
The new style is not easy to use. Should go by to previous style.
