Benjamin Moore

Dash of Pepper

1554

Dash of Pepper is a warm neutral brown with muted gray undertones that temper the warmth and give it a slightly smoky quality. It has an LRV of 15.29, placing it in the darker range where it absorbs most ambient light. The gray influence prevents it from reading as overtly warm or tan, lending a more restrained character.

It works well with Benjamin Moore's Revere Pewter, Edgecomb Gray, Hale Navy, Salamander, and Chantilly Lace. This shade is commonly used in living rooms and dens where a grounded brown is desired.
