Monkeyface Pepper

Hot chile pepper with a fruity, almost mango-like flavour. Although the heat is definitely there, the taste is not edgy or bitter like some other hot peppers. After the initial hot and spicy kick, the flavour lingers well after the heat subsides. The indented yellow fruits, 10cm/4" long, vaguely suggest the faces of monkeys. This variety came to us from Sweden where chile enthusiasts apparently like their heat to come in fun shapes and flavours! Heat: 2,500-5,000 Scoville units.
