Amazonian Yellow Chili Pepper – Rare Colombian Heat with Fruity Citrus Notes

Bring bold, exotic heat to your kitchen with this Amazonian Yellow Chili Pepper, a premium dried chili from Colombia. Native to the Amazon basin, this chili belongs to the Capsicum frutenscens family, the same botanical species as Tabasco pepper, but with a more aromatic character and a unique yellow colour.

Harvested before full maturity and gently dried to preserve its bright colour, this chili delivers a powerful, volcanic heat together with a fruity, tangy flavour reminiscent of citrus. It is an excellent choice for anyone who loves intense spice but still wants depth, aroma and balance.
