My wholesaler says that it is a long pepper.

I mistrust because the fruit doesn't ideal look like a long pepper imaging on the photoes that I find and it has a slightly bitter (but not hot!) flavour (taste) and a camphoraceous (similar a black cardamom) aroma.
What is it? Can anyone help me?

PS. I'm sorry for my English that isn't as good as I would like.

@vlad-50,

I am not on a computer where I can easily post an image here for you so you will need to do a Google search on Indian long pepper. It looks very similar to your photo.

@Butrflynet,

Thanx for the answer.
But according to Wikipedia and some other sites "Indian long pepper" is only another name of "Long pepper" Sad

@vlad-50,

Unfortunately, I cannot edit my previous posts.
Therefore the new one with the better image should be created by me.

Properties of the fruit (sorry for repeating):
taste - absolutely no hot, but slightly bitter,
aroma - camphoraceous (similar a black cardamom)
