An intensely hot chilli, rated 100,000–350,000 on the Scoville scale. Habaneros produce small, bell-shaped fruit, which are scarlet red at maturity. Originally from the Caribbean, (try it in Jamaican jerk sauce) the Habanero's extreme heat and floral aroma is a favourite in spicy Tex-Mex foods like salsas, chili & fajitas.
Features
- Ferociously hot
- Handle with care
- Not for children!
