Peugeot Paris Classic Antique Pepper Mill, 22cm/8-3/4, Natural

The PEUGEOT Paris mill collection is the brand's signature, with classical and timeless lines. This mill is fast becoming the most preferred option, suitable for both modern and traditional kitchens. The round shape of the Paris mill allows for a great grasp and easy rotation of the head while cooking, with a 5-year warranty on the body.

PEUGEOT's Pepper Grinding Mechanism is a two-stage burr-style system, where the helix-shaped grooves and grinding teeth of the pepper mechanism are individually cut before the steel is case hardened, making it virtually indestructible. The mechanism is then given a proprietary treatment to provide additional protection against corrosion.

During use, the helix-shaped grooves guide whole peppercorns through the mechanism, first cracking and then grinding them to a consistent size by a double row of teeth. This process releases the pepper's essential oils, resulting in more flavor and aroma for your dish. This patented mechanism is found on every PEUGEOT Pepper mill and is widely considered the best pepper mechanism.

The Paris Mill has been elected the #1 kitchen essential by Real Simple in May 2013, further solidifying the brand's reputation. PEUGEOT mills are often copied, but never equaled, with a legacy dating back to 1810 and proudly made in France using PEFC certified beech wood.

As part of the final assembly and testing process, PEUGEOT mills are partially filled with pepper at the factory in France. The pepper mechanism is equipped with a helix-shaped double row of teeth that guide and hold the peppercorns for a perfect grind. The patented treatment protects the steel from corrosion while maintaining its sharpness and wear resistance, ensuring the release of maximum flavor and aroma by first cracking each peppercorn before it is ground.

The classic grind adjustment on the Paris Mill allows users to turn the top knob tighter (clockwise) for finer grinds or looser (counter-clockwise) for coarser grinds, providing versatility and control in the kitchen.
