AAA - Green Habanero Pepper Flakes

Magic Plant Green Habanero Pepper Flakes

A Botanical Twist—Sharp Heat with a Fresh, Herbaceous Flavor.

Overview

Our natural Green Habanero packs a powerful heat at 200,000 to 350,000 (SHUs). Harvested before they reach full maturity, green habaneros offer a sharp, immediate sting rather than a "creeper heat." So those few seconds prior to that—this respected pepper actually has a really nice complex herbal and slightly savory flavor! Our Green Habanero ground pepper, crushed flakes and dry whole pods are very hot (spicy) so use with common sense and caution. Remember, the heat is felt quickly so start with a very small taste test to gauge your heat tolerance.

The Green Habanero is the unripened version of the classic Habanero, resulting in a more vegetal and crisp heat level. Intense Heat and Endorphin Rush. Before processing, Green Habanero peppers have a distinctive appearance with a smooth, waxy texture and a vibrant lime-green color. They are often characterized by their lantern-like shape, giving them a recognizable "habanero" appearance but with a unique botanical twist.
