Gusto Peppers

Anybody try these?
Got then today when I went shopping, always on the lookout for new peppers.
Didnt expect mutch so I took a big byte in one and was surprised how hot it was, like a very good jalapeno yet bellow Thai. Heat lasted about 15min in my mouth, was nice, just a surprise.
According to the web site their a cousin of the Bell Pepper, no other info, so looks like a trademark pepper from that company. Will keep seeds to grow later.

I got some of these last year, different company but same looking peppers. They called them red long red hot peppers and yellow long red peppers. I saved some seed and planted them this year. My pods grew true but were much larger than the ones I purchased last year. Interesting pepper, cayenne heat, meaty pod. Didn't get any yellow ones though.
