PEUGEOT
Spice Mill

A sophisticated and high-quality wooden mill, built to last a lifetime.

Peugeot, a traditional French company, has a history spanning over 200 years. Many people know it as a car brand, but in fact, it developed pepper mills even before cars. The Peugeot family originally ran a flour milling business, so they excelled in blade and cutting technology, which was later applied to automobile gears. This means that the grinder's quality is impeccable, capable of powerfully crushing hard spice grains and grinding them uniformly with light effort.
Furthermore, excellent durability is another major characteristic of Peugeot spice mills. In France, it's said that many families use Peugeot wooden mills purchased decades ago, and some even pass them down to their children's generation. I believe these spice mills possess durability that goes beyond a lifetime, along with timeless beauty and high quality.

A classic salt mill. Grinding salt at the end adds impressive flavor with less salt.

Peugeot Mills offer a wide range of mills with various designs and functions. At kikkake, we offer two types from the "Paris" series: a salt mill dedicated to salt and a pepper mill that can grind spices such as black pepper, Sichuan pepper, and coriander seeds.
The salt mill is in the color "Antique." As its name suggests, it has a beautiful, profound texture that utilizes the natural grain and knots of the wood.
The coarseness of the salt can be adjusted by turning the knob at the top, allowing for both coarse and fine grinding. We recommend grinding it at the end of cooking. You can directly feel the salt particles on your tongue before they dissolve, experiencing a stronger, more impressive salty taste. As a result, you'll feel the saltiness sufficiently even with less salt, which is a welcome effect for reducing salt intake.
Please note that only dry rock salt and crystal salt can be used. Moist salts like sea salt cannot be used, as they can affect the stainless steel part of the grinder. Also, pink rock salt is not recommended due to its often large grain size. We appreciate your attention to these points.

Cool and beautiful pepper mill.
Intense aroma and pleasant spiciness.
Adjustable to 6 levels of coarseness.

This pepper mill, named "Graphite," is finished in a handsome grey-black, with the wood grain visible through it. This mill features a dial at the bottom that can be rotated to adjust the grinding coarseness to six different levels. This function allows for clearer coarseness adjustment than the salt mill.
Larger peppercorns tend to retain their aroma longer, so grinding them just before eating releases a rich aroma and a pleasant spiciness. The iron grinder cuts and crushes the spices, allowing you to enjoy their intense flavor.

A height of 18cm, a convenient size for cooking.
A funnel for refilling is also recommended.

Peugeot mills come in various sizes, from 10cm ones suitable for tabletop use to many others. The two types we carry at kikkake are 18cm tall. They have just the right presence and a stable feel in hand, making them perfect for use in the kitchen while cooking.
We also highly recommend the dedicated funnel for refilling spices. It features a beautifully engraved Peugeot logo on the handle and fits perfectly into the mill's refill opening. It's an item that showcases the high quality unique to Peugeot, where every tool is beautiful.

Product Characteristics and Points to Note

• Do not wash with water. When cleaning, wipe off moisture and dirt with a dry cloth.
• The salt mill can be used with rock salt and crystal salt. The pepper mill can be used with white, black, and green peppercorns, Sichuan pepper, Japanese pepper, and coriander seeds. Pink pepper has a high oil content and may stick to or clog the grinder blades if used alone, so if you wish to use it, mix it with white or black peppercorns to a ratio of 15% or less.
• Avoid use and storage in humid places.
• Do not place near heat sources.
• Provided it is used in the recommended way, a 5-year warranty applies from the date of purchase. If you experience any defects or malfunctions, please contact us at info@kikkake-store.com.
