Description:
The Peach Scotch Bonnet pepper is a very hot chili pepper that originated from the Caribbean. It is a sight to behold with its vibrant peach color and smooth, shiny skin. This pepper is similar in both appearance and heat level to the Habanero pepper.
Peach Scotch Bonnet pepper plants are high yielding plants that grow to about 3-4 feet tall. These small, lantern-shaped peppers begin green and transition to the iconic peach color they are known for. The mature plants produce a generous amount of 2" pods.
With a Scoville rating ranging from 100,000 to 350,000 units, Peach Scotch Bonnet chilies deliver a punch of intense spiciness tempered by delightful fruity undertones reminiscent of mango and apricot. Perfect for adding depth and heat to salsas, sauces, marinades, and dishes inspired by Caribbean and West African cuisines.
