chinense School me on Safi Red Scotch Bonnets

Updates... I am growing Safi Bonnets. They taste very very rad. No e of my plants are particularly productive, due to my own missteps, but my Safi plants are all setting a lot of pods compared to most of my other plants ( notable exceptions include Congo Trinidad's and Jamaican Hot Chocolates.) I'll definitely grow these again next year.

Also, FWIW, I came in second place in the local chili competition

I grew SAFI red bonnets a couple of years ago and absolutely loved them. Ordered more seeds this year for next season as I mistakenly thought I still had some saved.
From my experience with them, I can say they do have great yields and the flavour is outstanding. Heat is higher than MoA bonnets, and based on memory alone I'd put it close by the P. Dreadie bonnets I'm growing this year. Now that I have seeds again it'll be a definite grow every year.
 

Did you end up growing the Safi this year? I don't think I've tried one but sounds like a good one!

I was planning on it but had issues (my own fault) germinating some varieties and that was 1 of them.

For sure! You need seeds? I should have a couple I can send if you do.
 

You know, I looked last night and I actually do need a few. Thought I had a whole pack but it wasn't the right ones. I'll hollar at you closer to the end of the year bud! THanks!!!
