Welcome to THP from west Texas!
I'm staying out of these debates. But you'll be happy to know that I have some Rocoto pepper (aka Manzano) seeds. These are the real deal, from Arequipa, Peru. I bought them from a market when I was there. They take a long time to mature. I grew them when I was in Duluth, MN, and I can tell you that although they are tolerant of the cold, do not let them stay out when it gets below freezing...bring them indoors.
I'd be happy to send you some seeds, just PM me your address.

EDIT: forgot one, how about the Aji Limon?
No, Aji Limon (Chinense) is definitely different from the "Lemon" Baacctum complex...although is does have lemony overtones (imho).
They are all the same because they are all peppers.

Ah damn!

I am not debating about the similarities of the lemon strains, I just want to know how well they have done for people and how to get some seeds from the best type to grow the peppers myself. I want the one that has the best lemon flavor, not the hottest of them.

from the hot and humid SE.Grow them all and you decide what you like best. Everyone has their own set of taste buds.

Oh my bad, I thought you were looking for bhut jolokia seeds.
My Lemon Drop is doing quite well, along with the Aji limons. Both plants are ahead of the rest of the gang in growth, flowers, and buds. I say grow them both. I should have seeds at the end of the season if you want to contact me then be happy to send you some.
