Very productive Ecuador seasoning heirlooms. This prolific producer has a spicy aroma and is best fresh, in sauces, or for drying. The fruits ripen to yellow, but are also very flavorful when green. The skin is tender and the aroma is spicy with a hint of pine woods. As hot as any Cayenne, these peppers have a truly unique flavor. Very disease resistant.
