Types of Pepper in Vietnam

Vietnam produces a variety of pepper types, which are all pegged on the ripening stages of the piper nigrum plant. These berries, which have cluster-like shape, keep changing colors in the steps of ripening. They start initially from green to yellowish or yellow-orange color and later on ends up as pure red, which is at a full maturity stage. Typically, the green phase of the berries is unripe, while the yellowish or yellow-orange or orange-red stage shows that the berry is fully ripe.
