Pepper Habanero Red

These staggeringly hot peppers mature from green to their final bright red colour and are typically 3-5cm long. Habanero peppers first originated in Amazonia, Brazil, before spreading north into Mexico and the Caribbean, where they are used in local dishes and sauces today. The wrinkled fruits are extremely hot, rated at 300,000 SHU (Scoville units) plus.
