looking for best cayenne

I grew some Golden Cayennes here in North Texas. I got them from Refining Fire Chiles/Jim Duffy.  They taste pretty good once ripe.  They had a good heat that kept the tongue/throat throbbing for about a minute before it started subsiding.  They were a bit "seedy", but tasted good and had a good kick to them.  They were drying quickly on the vine in the 100+ degree heat, but seeing as you're in Wisconsin, I doubt that'll be too much of an issue for you guys.  Once the temperatures cooled down, that one plant started producing like mad.  I just cut it down today since my growing season is almost done.  It was about a 4-4.5 foot tall plant.
 
(woo hoo, my first non-Welcome forum post!)
 
I am growing golden cayenne and jwala, haven't tried the jwala yet but the golden cayenne is good! Slightly sweeter than a red
 
I like most of the cayenne types I've had but Jwala is one I grow every year now, so I would say it has become my favorite cayenne-type chile.
