"Many of the mills on the market - including even the classic wooden pepper mill - turn out to be little more than decorative" - Pierre Franey NYT 1982
On June 25th 1982 The New York Times ran a story about Pepper Grinders. It was written by the famous French Chef Pierre Franey. It discussed a common problem of cooking recipes calling for freshly ground pepper and home chefs not having access to those important spices. This entire article was dedicated to our world famous PepperMate Traditional Pepper Mill. It was revolution in home cooking and even the experts agreed.
"A new pepper mill has just been introduced on the market and it is one of the best I've come across. Called PepperMate, it is a sleep and beautifully designed model about six inches high, attractive and easy to operate." - Pierre Franey NYT 1982
