7 Pot Barrackpore (Chocolate)
C.Chinense
1,000,000 – 1,350,000 SHUThe 7 pot Barrackpore chocolate was given to us by a friend – we grew it out and just loved the shape, colour and waxy sheen. The pods are huge some growing to 8cm long and 6cm wide. We don’t have any background on this one other than it is said to be a natural variant of the Red Barrackpore. The original red variety is named after Barrackpore, a town in India. We are not sure of the strains stability but we will continue to grow this one ourselves into the future and see how it goes.

7 Pot Bubblegum Chocolate
C.Chinense
700,000 – 800,000 SHULook at all this chocolate goodness but don’t be fooled this one is a hottie. We love a bleeding calyx on a good looking chilli and this one is certainly that. Fruit grow around 3cm x 3cms in size and are thick walled with lots of placenta. Its another naturally occurring variant of the 7 pot Bubblegum Red(a cross between a Trinidad Scorpion Moruga and a Trinidad 7 Pod Yellow) and we think it is hotter with more of a smokey aroma. Get your hands on this one for your rare chilli collection – you won’t be disappointed.

7 Pot Bubblegum Yellow
C.Chinense
500,000-650,000 SHUThis little beauty is definitely one for those who are collectors of rare and unique chillies. The Yellow variety is a naturally occurring variant of the 7 pot Bubblegum Red(a cross between a Trinidad Scorpion Moruga and a Trinidad 7 Pod Yellow) that we obtained from a friend. It is seemingly less hot than the red variety and the pods are about half the size at 3-4cms long and 2-3cms wide. It has the bleeding calyx that we all love and is quite prolific as chilli plants go. Taste wise it has the typical chinense flavour with a citrisy sweetness that bursts through.

7 Pot Congo SR Gigantic Brown
C. Chinense
Approx. 1,000,000 SHUThe 7 Pot Congo SR Gigantic Brown. That’s quite a mouthful and so is this great chilli! The pods from this bush are very large and very prolific. With that usual rich and earthy flavour that a lot of the brown super hots have, it will be more than enough for warming your food up to the level of “Am I the only one mad enough to eat this?” So with all the pods you have left over you can make your amazing chilli powder to amuse your friends…. Fun for almost everyone! This chilli is still quite rare and we are lucky enough to be one of a very few that have it.

7 Pot Barrackpore (Chocolate)
C.Chinense
We think over 1,000,000 SHUSome people say the 7 Pot Rennie is a myth but after growing it we think it has its own distinctive characteristics – mainly its shape. From our tasting it is one of the hottest 7 Pots and is also one of the best 7 Pot producers we have grown. Here is the background we found on this one anyhow. “A guy named Rodney got these from a friend named “Rennie”. Rennie is from Grenada. His wife is from Trinidad. Her parents collected these seeds in Trinidad (possibly Landrace) and gave them to Rennie. Rennie then gave to Rodney who distrubuted them to friends in the United States.” Confused well don’t worry we think you won’t be disappointed in this one. Check out Nigel’s review and decide what you think.

7 Primo Hybrid AKA ‘THE GOD STOPPER!’
C. Chinense
SHU 1,500,000 at leastThis remarkable chilli started life as a caramel 7 primo and well and truly has its home in Western Australia. A talented grower in W.A. inadvertently grew a yellow one from this stock and it was evident right away that it was extremely special. After a couple of generations, it was introduced to Mathew Price, one of Australia’s best chilli scoffers! It is well known in Australia that Mathew can tackle any chilli but this one brought the Aussie Chilli God to his knees. From here on in known as the “God Stopper!” These seeds are from the source and a fairly stable now but yet to be tested for SHU. Try them, we guarantee fun times!

Adjoema Mustard
C. Chinense
Approx. 400,000 – 500,000 SHUThis ones hotter than is usual in a habanero variety but tastes sensational. We got this from the chilli grower extraordinaire Alice Lennard. One of the few mustard varieties we’ve grown that turn full mustard colour on bush before going soft. ie. A lot of mustard types go soft before fully turning Mustard colour. We don’t know a great deal about this one but it grows like a typical hab and the pods are hab size. Glad we grew this one and highly recommend for flavour.

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.

Aji Melocoton Yellow
C. Baccatum
Approx. 10,000 – 30,000 SHUWhat do we have here, a yellow Aji Melocoton. First ever that we know of… Melocoton means peach in spanish so we should really call this one Aji Melocoton aka Amarillo. You can’t go wrong with baccatum’s for flavour and this one is very citrusy sweet with slight lemon undertones. Originally created by Judy at Pepperlover why not be one of the first to grow the yellow variety. The plant grows tall and gangly, needing a good staking in its first year. Super prolific with non seedy fruit that change from green to a lovely yellow. We have grown it out twice and gotten the yellow variety each time but who knows you may even get another surprise colour.

Aji Peanut
C. Baccatum
8,500 – 10,000 SHU Aprox.
Well again we have a interesting cool variety that clearly is shaped like its name – the Aji Peanut chilli pepper. A very uncommon baccatum variety we came across that got our attention. The mature fruits look quite like a peanut shell and are deep red in colour. Hot enough to get your attention with the plant growing a bit gangly at 60-80cms tall. Take your time to warm to this one but be assured it’s a great producer and easy maintenance. We recommend you give it a crack.
