Habanero Orange Pepper

SHU – 100,000-350,000. Want a HOT pepper? Look no further! A taste treat worth the risk! One of the hottest/spiciest “heat packers” on the planet! This one has extreme heat, making it at least 50 times hotter than jalapenos. These 1 1/2”-2” long, lantern-shaped peppers are thin skinned and waxy. They start out green, but “flame out” to a bright orange when mature. The tropical, fruity, citrus-flavored heat is nicely accompanied with an apricot aroma and makes a great addition to hot sauces/salsas/meat spice rubs. Don’t over water or bitter peppers will result. Handle carefully when processing due to serious skin/eye irritant in pepper residues.
