Piper Cubeba is a dried ripe berry that is generally called cubeb pepper. It is frequently used in conventional medicine to treat a variety of illnesses, including syphilis, gonorrhoea, asthma, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, and dysentery.

It is a relative of piper longum and piper nigrum and is from the piper family. The Cubeb has a grayish-brown tint and resembles peppercorns in appearance.
West African black pepper, Javanese pepper, Tailed pepper, Cubeb, False pepper, and Cubeb pepper are some of the frequent names for the cubeb berry.

Essential oil from dried cubeb berries contains sesquiterpenes and monoterpenes. Terpenes found in berries have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects. Cubeb pepper typically treats headaches and vertigo while also acting as an aphrodisiac and enhancing mental focus. When smoked, the pepper powder in the form of solid cubes will be stimulating. Here are a few of the most significant health advantages of Cubeb pepper use.

Leaves
The leaves are 6 inches long and have a short, robust petiole. The leaf is lanceolate or oval-oblong in form, with an acute tip. Usually, the major vein is below the uneven base, which is slightly waved, partially coriaceous, and pale rather than deep green.

Flower
The cubeb pepper's sessile, dioecious, unisexual blossom. Each bloom has a bract base that is tightly packed with tiny, rounded, solid, and straight spikes against the leaves. The female spikes are shorter, rougher, thicker, and fatter than the male spikes, which are thin, short-stalked, and lengthy in length.

Fruit
Axillary inflorescence racemes that grow horizontally from the axis and produce a slender raceme (many ovaries aborted) approximately 2 inches long are sparsely pubescent, about 1/4 inch long, blunt, and slightly tapered at the base. When the youthful yellow transforms into red, the fruits are green.
