Pequin plant with red shiny hot peppers

Pequin

This Capsicum Annuum variety of hot pepper is small but manages to bundle a large amount of flavor inside. As it matures, the color turns from deep green to bright red. It is a beautiful little pepper, ranging from a half to 1 inch in length at its biggest.

Its complex flavor is citrusy, smoky, sweet, and nutty. The heat content is more than enough to tickle the tongue of your clients, solidly in our medium heat category, and reaching out for the hot section.
