Peruvian Purple Hot Pepper????

I was given these seeds a year ago from a friend he didn't know the name. I have looked and the closest i can find is the "Peruvian Purple Hot Pepper" it's a mildly hot pepper with a bell pepper kind of taste. any ides?

I grew them last year, and they had a mild smokey undertone to their flavour. I would not describe it as really bell pepperish, but there may be different strains of the same type of plant.
 
Nice looking plant with lots of variegation on the leaves. My Peruvian purple plant has much darker leaves and no variegation. Looks like an ornamental pepper called purple tiger, also known as tricolour variegata or just variegata.
