We grow all of our vegetables and since few years we started growing spicy peppers as well. Our most beloved ones at this point are Habanero and some sort of regular looking Mexican chili pepper brought to us by a friend who was there on a business trip.

I personally fell in love with Habanero because of its fruity notes. It's not a pepper I eat fresh often but we make a nice sweet sauce from it that is used way too much in our household.

As am preparing slowly for the next season, I'd love to hear some suggestions on what I should try next. I'd prefer to try peppers with some characteristic taste. I already have my eyes set on Aji Lemon, Sugar Rush Peach, Golden Nuggets. We prefer medium spicy peppers but I've had hotter. I just dislike hot for the sake of hot.

My fav all-time!

There are some varieties like chocolate, but they're all super-hots and have a clear citrus tang. Just as easy to grow as any other cultivar. Get some!

Never heard of this one. For citrus flavor this year am going with Aji Lemon. But I'll keep my eye on Fatalii. Thanks for the suggestion.
