## Description

Capsicum annuum var. glabriusculum is a variety of Capsicum annuum that is native to southern North America and northern South America. Common names include chiltepín, chiltepe, and chile tepin, as well as turkey, bird’s eye, or simply bird peppers, due to their consumption and spread by wild birds. Chiltepin is a perennial shrub that usually grows to a height of around 1 m (3.3 ft), but sometimes reaches 3 m (9.8 ft) and in areas without hard frost in winter, plants can live 35-50 years. Thin fleshed, has a dry and dusty flavor and a searing transient heat. Claimed to be hotter and or equal to Habanero, it is used to make salsas, or to add flavor to soups, stews, and vinegars.

Review: Excellent Heat, Inexpensive & Fresh! - These are nicely spicy (about the heat of a habanero with a different kind of bite) and work great for soaking meats to marinade in, as well as in salsa. I have some in a grinder currently to use over griddled dishes and will be including them in my chili stews this winter, too. Versatile, hot pepper with a lot of flavour--very fresh and very aromatic! I recommend you store these in a bag other than the one they came in or your cupboard may smell exclusively of chiltepins. Wonderful spice for a very reasonable price...I'm glad I found this gem of a shoppe!
Review: A unique smokey hot pepper. - Chiltepin hot smokey peppers are difficult to find. They add a distinct smoke flavor with a high degree of heat. Simply a unique , flavorful and HOT pepper. More flavor than habanero or other hot peppers. Simply try it for a welcome change of pace!
