Christine’s dad started mashing and fermenting pepper’s from his mother-in-law’s land in the 80’s and over the year’s developed Eaton’s and King Pepper brand sauces and Jams. Christine grew up watching the business grow and wanted to follow in her dad’s footsteps with a different twist. Christine wanted to focus on all local and natural ingredients and collaborate with new Jamaica talent to develop exciting recipes mixing traditional with contemporary. She hopes her 2 daughters will follow in the tradition and make their own mark in Jamaican cuisine.
