Where do peppercorns come from?

[KarenB]

As we were eating dinner tonight, using our pepper mill, the discussion of peppercorns came up by DS 14.

Just where do the peppercorns come from? Are they a seed from the peppercorn plant? Where in the world are they grown?

Of course I told DS that I knew just where to find the answer------the DIS!
