They are fresh, very spicy, and high quality every time. Also the seeds germinate if you would like to try and grow this difficult pepper plant yourself. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Heat, Inexpensive & Fresh! *by on Reviewed in the United States November 10, 2015* These are nicely spicy (about the heat of a habanero with a different kind of bite) and work great for soaking meats to marinade in, as well as in salsa. I have some in a grinder currently to use over griddled dishes and will be including them in my chili stews this winter, too. Versatile, hot pepper with a lot of flavour--very fresh and very aromatic! I recommend you store these in a bag other than the one they came in or your cupboard may smell exclusively of chiltepins. Wonderful spice for a very reasonable price...I'm glad I found this gem of a shoppe! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ High quality *by on Reviewed in the United States January 4, 2022* My son is a displaced Texan now living in Chicago. These things grow wild in my yard here in Texas, and I was always picking them and sending them to him. Last year, poor pepper crop. So, last Christmas, I turned to Amazon, and lo and behold, I found some! Sent him a 4 ounce bag. He gushed over them for months. "Best Christmas gift ever!" Says that they were fresh, very hot, high quality. He even planted a few in pots and now has a few plants growing in his window. So, this Christmas, I sent him a bigger bag. Best gift ever for a displaced Texas country boy!I wanna go home to the armadillo... ## Frequently Bought Together - Dried Chiltepin Peppers (Chili Tepin) // Weights: 0.5 Oz, 1 Oz, 2 Oz, 4 Oz and 6 Oz!!
