Hey Judy

I was wondering if you have more information than is on your site about Inca Red Drop?
 
Description
[SIZE=12pt]Another interesting medium hot capsicum baccatum from the Andean, the productive plant sets many small fruits turning for yellow to orange to bight red.[/SIZE]
 
In my head when I ate the first ripe one I kind of equated it to tobasco but they are diff species. I'd never had a red ripe tobasco before though, only the sauce and whole pickled green.
 
The red drop is nice tasting.
 
I Found C.Baccatum to be very hot for me, the stages seems to affect the heat level, the green/yellow early stage was very very hot, but when it started turning red, it became sweeter so the heat seemed to be going down in the full ripe pods. I found this to be a growing character in all Baccatums. they tedn to get sweeter as they age on the plant or even picked 
 
Anyone else has this experience with most Baccatums

Lol jack 
I personally love the Bacatum family more than all other peppers for fresh eating.
This season will share new breeds been working on in this family.
such as  Ají Melocotón
 
Hey Judy,
 
I also have a question. Like in fashion, a new season means a new fall line. What can we expect from pepperlover.com regarding new strains or any updates this year?
I really can't wait to order some more from you. You are amazing.

Yes!

The beauty of some baccatums is that they taste great unripe also. Different flavoring as they progress to fully ripe. I have been munching omnicolors for the last week...killer!
 
That is some fall line !!!!!! Then my money and I will be reading and stalking the site. Can't wait!

Hey John, have you tired them dry, they are the best in almost all dry chilies, most of us hardly ever come across dry baccatums, bcz the anncums have been dominating the dry industry with exception to Aji Amarillo from Peru. But you will never find dry Bishop's hat or Brazilian starfish which I found to be crazy delicious as a daily snack

well my aji starfish seem to have longer season, right?
 
I have a very nice no name golden Aji that I really like along with a bishop hat.  I grow them every year, they are great fresh pickled or made into a mild sweet powder.
70 varities more well I will have to take a look at what you have, I already have set a side some for some of your wild varieties.
I have your wild mystery blue already its one of my favorite wilds, will you be adding any more rare wilds?
