Both ornemental and delicious, this hot pepper variety comes from Brazil. It grows abundant small peppers (2 to 3 cm long) which have a very unique water drop shape. Crunchy, fruity and only slightly spicy, its exceptional taste must be discovered raw, as the pepper loses all its flavor when cooked. It will be best used in a fruit salad or in this Brazilian traditional recipe:

A great substitution to the pepper with a protected designation of origin grown in Pyrénées-Atlantiques! Selected and grown since the 17th Century in a small French Basque Country village (Espelette) for its subtle yet flavorful taste. It truly gives off all of its tasty potential once dehydrated and ground. Productive variety that gives fruits between 5 to 10 cm in length.
Official variety for the production of the famous Espelette pepper, however cultivation and harvest are regulated by a PDO in order to use the name 'Espelette'.

The Jalapeño pepper is probably amongst the most well-known and loved hot pepper there is. It comes from the city of Xalapa, in Mexico.
Jalapeño peppers are particularly generous in terms of fruits produced. Each plant grows several conical green fruits that will turn red once fully ripe. You can harvest them when they are still green, which is how we often encounter them in stores and restaurants, to get a milder pepper. If you wait until they are fully ripe and red, they will gain in spiciness and flavor.
Hot but not burning, this pepper is quite versatile. It will soon become an essential for your Indian or Mexican inspired recipes.

The Magnum Habanero peppers are bright orange and among the spiciest in the world, ranking between 100,000 and 350,000 on the Scoville scale. They are quite explosive in the mouth, both in terms of spiciness and flavour! They are very aromatic and are used as a key ingredient in several West Indian sauces. In Mexico they are used to spice up some otherwise milder meals.

The Peach Sugar Rush pepper was selectively bred by Chris Fowler, who finally stabilized the variety in 2012, 8 years after he first started the process. He had noted that the rosy color was associated with higher sugar levels and a strong citrus taste.
He did succeed very well, as this pepper tastes very sweet with hints of apricot, peach and lemon before the spiciness comes in. Ranging from 50 000 to 100 000 on the Scoville scale, it ranks under Habanero peppers. Very productive and delicious (for hot pepper lovers!), it quickly became one of our favorites at the farm.
Do not be surprised, the peach color does take a while before showing up. It will come towards the end of the season, or you might even need to make it ripen after harvesting it. Nothing stops you from eating it before though!

Wild shrubby variety from the Tabasco state, in South-Eastern Mexico. This pepper is very small, red, and slightly elongated. About 5 to 8 times stronger than Jalapeno peppers, it ranks between 50 to 70 000 units on the Scoville scale. They are therefore very spicy, on top of their sweet and fruity taste - ideal for those used to spiciness that are seeking to discover new flavors. In sauces, salsas, or dried and ground up they will nicely spice up many different types of meals.
Rare and sometimes mistaken with its rounder cousin, the Tepin pepper.
