Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
International Standard ISO 959-2 was prepared by Technical Committee TC 34, Agricultural food products,
Subcommittee SC 7, Spices and condiments.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 959-2:1989), which has been technically revised.
ISO 959 consists of the following parts, under the general title Pepper (Piper nigrum L.), whole or ground —
Specification:
— Part 1: Black pepper
— Part 2: White pepper
Annex A forms an integral part of this part of ISO 959. Annex B is for information only.

Part 2:
White pepper
1  Scope
This part of ISO 959 specifies requirements for white pepper (Piper nigrum L.) (see ISO 676), whole or ground, at
the following commercial stages:
a) semi-processed (SP);
b) processed (P).
When the term "white pepper" is used alone, it means that the specification applies to both types described, without
distinction.
This part of ISO 959 is not applicable to white pepper categories called "light".
NOTE  Specifications for white pepper are given in ISO 959-1.
Recommendations relating to storage and transport conditions are given in annex B.

4  Description
4.1  Whole white pepper is obtained in two ways, as follows:
2

---------------------- Page: 4 ----------------------
©
ISO ISO 959-2:1998(E)
a) from black pepper using the whole dry berry of Piper nigrum L., generally picked before complete ripening, and
removing the outer pericarp, with or without preliminary soaking in water; if necessary, drying is carried out
afterwards;
b) from the whole ripe berry of Piper nigrum L., removing the outer pericarp by the same procedue as described
above.
Berries of white pepper are generally sperical in shape, of diameter 3 mm to 6 mm, having a smooth surface, and
are slightly flattened at one pole and have a small protuberance at the other.
Berries generally have vertical scores going from one pole to the other, of a slightly darker colour. The colour of
white pepper varies from matt brownish grey to pale ivory white.
4.2  Ground white pepper is obtained by grinding white pepper berries, without adding any foreign matter to the
pepper.
5  Requirements
5.1  Odour and flavour
When ground, the odour and flavour shall be characteristic of white pepper, slightly sharp and very aromatic. The
product shall be free from foreign odours and flavours.
NOTE  The appearance of berries has no direct relation to their flavour. Smaller berries can be more aromatic than berries of
larger size or of better appearance.
5.2  Freedom from mould, insects, etc.
White pepper shall be free from mould growth and living insects, and practically free from dead insects, insect
fragments and rodent contamination visible to the naked eye (corrected, if necessary, for abnormal vision) or with
such magnification as may be necessary in any particular case. If the magnification exceeds x10, this fact shall be
mentioned in the test report.
In the case of ground white pepper, impurities shall be determined according to the method given in ISO 1208.

Avant-propos
L'ISO (Organisation internationale de normalisation) est une fédération mondiale d'organismes nationaux de
normalisation (comités membres de l'ISO). L'élaboration des Normes internationales est en général confiée aux
comités techniques de l'ISO. Chaque comité membre intéressé par une étude a le droit de faire partie du comité
technique créé à cet effet. Les organisations internationales, gouvernementales et non gouvernementales, en
liaison avec l'ISO, participent également aux travaux. L'ISO collabore étroitement avec la Commission
électrotechnique internationale (CEI) en ce qui concerne la normalisation électrotechnique.
Les projets de Normes internationales adoptés par les comités techniques sont soumis aux comités membres pour
vote. Leur publication comme Normes internationales requiert l'approbation de 75 % au moins des comités
membres votants.
La Norme internationale ISO 959-2 a été élaborée par le comité technique ISO/TC 34, Produits agricoles
alimentaires, sous-comité SC 7, Epices.
Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition (ISO 959-2:1989), dont elle constitue une révision
technique.

4 Description
4.1 Le poivre blanc est obtenu de deux façons:
a) à partir du poivre noir en utilisant la baie entière séchée, généralement cueillie avant maturité complète, du
Piper nigrum L., et en éliminant l'enveloppe extérieure du péricarpe avec ou sans macération préalable dans
l'eau; un séchage est ensuite effectué, le cas échéant;
b) à partir de la baie entière mûre du Piper nigrum L. en éliminant l'enveloppe extérieure du péricarpe, par les
mêmes procédés que décrits ci-dessus.
Les baies de poivre blanc se présentent sous la forme de grains presque sphériques, de 3 mm à 5 mm de diamètre,
montrant une surface lisse légèrement aplatie à un pôle, et une petite protubérance au point opposé.
Les baies présentent généralement des stries verticales allant d'un pôle à l'autre, d'une couleur légèrement plus
foncée. La couleur du poivre blanc va du gris mat brunâtre au blanc ivoire pâle.
4.2  Le poivre blanc en poudre est obtenu par broyage du poivre blanc, sans aucune adjonction de matières
étrangères au poivre.
5 Exigences
5.1 Odeur et flaveur
La flaveur du poivre blanc lorsqu'il est moulu doit être caractéristique, légèrement piquante et très aromatique. Le
produit doit être exempt d'odeur et de flaveurs étrangères.
NOTE  L'aspect des baies n'est pas en relation directe avec la flaveur. De petites baies peuvent être plus aromatiques que
des baies ayant une meilleure présentation ou des dimensions supérieures.
5.2 Absence de moisissures, insectes, etc.
Le poivre blanc doit être exempt d'insectes vivants et de moisissures, et pratiquement exempt d'insectes morts, de
fragments d'insectes et de contamination par les rongeurs, visibles à l'œil nu (corrigé si nécessaire dans le cas
d'une vision anormale) ou avec le grossissement pouvant s'avérer nécessaire dans certains cas particuliers. Si le
grossissement est supérieur à · 10, mention doit en être faite dans le rapport d'essai.
Dans le cas de poivre blanc en poudre, les impuretés doivent être déterminées selon la méthode décrite dans
l'ISO 1208.
5.3 Caractéristiques physiques
