Mystery SHU
We thought we would open our vaults and offer the serious chilli head the opportunity to sample some varieties we have in our PRIVATE COLLECTION. But please don’t order if you don’t like surprises and like to keep things predicable. We have a range of chilli seed varieties that we love but for a number of reasons don’t offer them for sale on our site. SO WHAT WILL YOU GET? – you will receive one special chilli seed variety we can guarantee is either super rare / not yet available / simply stunning in it’s beauty / or one that is a not deemed stable but extremely cool and/or extremely tasty. But please don’t order this product if you are someone who likes to keep things ORDINARY.

Aji Camba
C.Baccatum
Approx 30,000 – 60,000 SHUNot much is known about this rare chilli except that it is quite a rare one from Peru. It ripens up from white through to red and sometimes you will get some stunning purple striations as it does. Pod size is on average 2-3cms and they have a slightly sweet and salty flavour. If you love chillies that display a multitude of colours then this is a great one to grow – almost could be classed as an ornamental but tastier.

80,000 – 100,000 SHUThis is said to be the hottest baccatum around measuring up to 100,000 SHU.

Aji Colorado (Orange Variant)
C.Baccatum
20,000 – 30,000 SHUWe grew this one expecting the usual red variety but it has consistently thrown out amazing fluorescent orange pods – we love it. It is fast growing, fairly compact and a very prolific chilli pepper. The original Aji Colorado, from which this is a variant, is native to Bolivia and Peru. Packed with flavour these sweet-spicy, thin-walled chillies are extremely versatile. We love this pepper made into a powder as it really brings out the best of its flavour profile.

Aji Crystal
C.Baccatum
40,000 – 50,000 SHUThe Aji Crystal chilli is a lovely Baccatum from Curico in Chile. The pods are pendant shaped and grow to about 8cms long. The chilli pods mature from light green, through pale yellow and then to red. They have a wonderful citrus flavour that we love cut up on pizza or to use in a salsa. Usually grow just under a meter high and are quite prolific.

Aji Fantasy Peach
C. Baccatum
5,000 – 10,000 SHUThe Aji Peach Fantasy is probably our favourite Fantasy variety for taste. We think it has a real mellow melon flavour. Ours didn’t grow very star shaped but it was very sweet with a mild bite at the placenta like the other Aji Fantasy varieties. It has thick juicy flesh with a great crunch making it great to eat straight off the plant. The fruit start a translucent white then slowly ripen to peach. The bush does not grow large so it would be excellent in a patio pot. It sets masses of fruit for most of the year and did we mention it LOOKS GREAT Too.

Aji Mango Stumpy
C.Baccatum
20,000 – 30,000 SHUWhat an absolute ripper this one is. Created by the pepperlover crew this is the stumpy version that has all the same qualities as the original longer pheno type. Crazy producer of 3cm x 1cm sized fruit/pods the Aji Mango will blow you away. Ripening to a deep bright yellow the fruit taste sweet and fruity. Yes as its namesake implies it does have a hint of mango like fruity flavour. As for what it would be good with we can only say SAUCE SAUCE SAUCE. But we have it on everything from pizza to pasta to salads. Do yourself a favour and grow this one.
