Pepper (Hot) - Habanero, Orange 🔥🔥🔥🔥

The Orange Habanero Pepper is the kind of pepper that makes you want to check your garden several times a day to see how orange it can get. Very. The kind of pepper that makes you wonder if you can add it to a dish with all orange ingredients like chorizo, carrots, and sweet potatoes. Yes. Or how about with apricots and cantaloupe? Not as hot as other habanero peppers.

• Fruity, citrusy, smoky flavor
