Another mystery pepper

So I planted this as a Chinchi Uchu, then I thought it was an Aji Limon, but since it turns red I'm lost.
Anybody got an idea?

Seed source / history? (chance of an accidental cross in the past?)  I looked up Chinchi Uchu and did see pics of slightly more elongated pods.
 
There is a good chance that multiple strains have appeared on the market, when that happens you'll see some variation.
 
If the pods have a yummy unique flavor, then i would hold onto (pure) seed and regrow. If it's a cross then the following generations may clue you in to parentage.
 
Very nice plant by the way, I love that growth pattern. Seems to be doing well in a modest sized pot.
 
The chance of it being a cross is very high indeed. I got them through a swapping system. Haven't tried it yet, but will soon.
My plants are open pollinated, so pure seeds will be difficult. Nevertheless will be interesting to regrow when they taste good.
