Coyote Zan White
C. Chinense
60,000-100,000 SHUShaped like a little white fang the Coyote Zan White originates from Brazil with the pods growing to about 3-4cm long by 1.5cm wide. Not only does it look great it is extremely prolific and grows very compact. It has an umbrella canopy shaped growth habit making it perfect for easy maintenance small container growing. The pods start as light green, then turn to creamy white, and finally bright white. This variety has a very fruity aroma and taste profile with the heat 'very warming, not at all prickly or aggressive'. Has a strong Chinense flavour without bitterness and is popular for making homemade white hot sauce we are told.

Dal Santo Habanero
C. Chinense
Approx. 300,000 – 400,000 SHUNamed after a farmer friend of ours the Dal Santo Habanero is one of the best tasting Habs we have had. It is super sweet and fruity without the usual Hab earthiness. This one has a pleasant slow smooth all over mouth burn that doesn’t rip your throat out. Like most Hab varieties the Dal Santo is super prolific, hardy and easy maintenance. Plants grow to about a meter plus in height with the fruit measuring 3cm wide and 5-6cms long. Pods ripen to a shimmery shiny bright red. Such a versatile one in the kitchen to use in all manner of ways. If you love Habs then you must try this one – you won’t be disappointed.

Devils Brain Red
C. Chinense
Approx. 1,000,000 – 1,200.000 SHU
Another devilishly hot one. The Devils brain is a hybrid creation of the Brain Strain from Judy over at Pepperlover.com. We grew a few plants of this one and the pods colour and shape were very consistent. Meant to be up there with the Carolina Reaper heat level wise although it has a slow burn build up – so watch yourself with this sneaky one. Why it’s called the Devil’s Brain we can’t say but we love the name all the same.

Doux Long des Landes
C. Annuum
0 – 1000 SHUDoux Long Des Landes means ‘English sweet pepper from Landes.’ It is originally from the Southwest corner of France called Landes. It’s a sweet pepper with no heat that resembles a long and twisted Cayenne chill. We tried this one and thought it was a winner right away. The fruit of the Doux Long des Landes pepper can grow over 300mm long. They are sweet, juicy, tasty and are excellent when dried. A really good one for the family!

Elephant Trunk
C. Annuum
8,000 – 10,000 SHUAnother awesomely shaped chilli – there is no mistaking this one does in fact look like its name – the Elephant Trunk. We were super surprised at how prolific the Elephant Trunk Chilli plant was with its twisty 15-20cm long fruit. This variety comes from East India and is quite a compact growing plant. Taste wise its just great, sweet and juicy, just screaming to be stuffed with something like cheese and chorizo.

Erotico
C.Bacatuum
1,000 – 5,000 SHUThe Erotico would have to be one of our all time favorites. We fell in love with its strange phallic shape and intense golden orange colour. The fruit curls at the bottom forming an appendage similar to the male genital organ. Taste wise it is completely unique having an almost creamy texture. Citrucy with notes of cedar and tamarind, it just dances on the taste buds having just a tingle of heat. The Erotico chilli plant is quite prolific when it gets going and has an umbrella canopy style growth pattern. We think it makes a great accompaniment with fish or steamed vegetables but we put it on everything. We also love it dried as a powder and used for making chilli salt. You simply MUST grow this one.

Farmers Market Jalapeno
C. Annuum
5,000 – 15,000 SHUThe Farmers Market Jalapeno is hands down the most unusual of the Jalapeno types. It is completely covered in “corking” which is why it is also known as the Potato Skin Jalapeno. It is wonderfully sweet and mild with that great Jalapeno warmth, and tastes just like a Jalapeno. It also grows quite large! The skin does not detract from the taste or texture at all; in fact, it adds an ever so slight earthy mushroom taste. These are still quite rare but there is no doubt that these will burst onto the chilli market soon enough and take the chilli world by storm! THEY ARE THAT GOOD!

Fijian Bongo
C.Chinense
300,000 – 400,000 SHUGet your drums out for the Fijian Bongo Chilli – a unique habanero variety from Fiji. Sweet and tangy with a good solid burn it is hotter than the average habanero for sure. It has a really interesting shape that makes it a stand out with its nice deep ribbing. The Fijian Bongo Chilli is a very stocky solid plant that is super easy to grow. Pods get around 6cms long and 2cms wide and produce well in colder temperatures. It’s another great one for a tasty habanero sauce.

Golden Nugget
C. Annuum
20,000 – 30,000SHUWe knew this would be a good one before we even grew it and we were not disappointed. It’s from the USA but little else is known about the origin. This rare little gem is being used for pickling and drying and is apparently very good! Its amazing variegated foliage is extremely rare in the chilli world and adds to the appeal of this great ornamental. The fruit start green, then turn jet black before they ripen to gold with some amazing color changes in between. This chilli is a classic and is so beautiful you will want to hug it like you hug your dog dog!

Habajig
C.Chinense
800,000 – 1,000,000 SHUThe Habajig is a crazy cross we got from a friend and we don’t know much about it except it is a cross between a Hab Big Sun and a Fatalii Gourmet Jigsaw. The pods are ginormous at about palm size and they are burn your eyebrows off hot. If you are one of those people who love to grow unstable crosses this one at around F4 may be enticing. The Habajig is a crazy good producer and is great made into chilli powder. Grow it just to see what interesting results you get.

Habalokia Peach Lavalamp
C. Chinense
Approx 350,000 – 500,000 SHUSeeds for this interesting one came from a friend and we have little information on it. We think it is possibly a cross between a habanero variety and the red lavalamp chilli. It may not be fully stable but that said we were so impressed with the look and flavour we thought we would share it. This interesting mutant cross grew like a beast and produced like crazy. Plant grew quite compact and was about 70cm tall potted. The pods average 3cm long by 2cm wide giving them a blocky like appearance. Flavour wise we think they have a sweet almost peachy like taste with a slow intense all over mouth burn. If you like your mutant crosses this is one for the collection.

These are usually dehydrated into powders for everyday use. If you want to bring the authentic taste of the Middle East into your kitchen, here it is!
