chinense Bahamian Goat vs MOA Scotch Bonnet

[ButIDontWantAUsernam]

Bahamian Goat vs MOA Scotch Bonnet,
which one do you think tastes better.
 
If there is any other C. chinense peppers that taste better than these (in your opinion) and are around the heat of these, post it in the comments.

Grow both

 

[BlackFatalii]

Both of them are excellent. 
 
To me, they both have a Scotch Bonnet type of aroma and flavor, but the Bahamian Goat is a bit hotter and seems a little more citrusy tasting, while the MoA has a bit more of a tropical-fruity character. But they are both hot, fruity, and wonderful. They are two of the best peppers you could grow, IMO. I highly recommend growing both of them.

Having grown many Bonnets ... BlackFatalii has completely summed up your question .. if you have room grow them both and to answer your final question rather than the MoA ... SB TFM (Trenton Farmer's Market) is another classic

Personally I wasnt impressed by the MoA the ones I grew tasted closer to bell peppers. The same year I grew P. Dreadie SS SB and was very impressed they had a unique fruit like flavour I really like.

Also liked the Bahamian Goat but found the Peach Ghost SS from Pepper Lover to be very similar in flavour but much more intense flavour and way hotter.

Everybody has different perception of flavour and growing conditions may also influence flavour. Bahamian Goat I reckon is a very safe bet if you dont have much space to grow a lot of varieties.

Plus one-grow both.

I agree with Jase; the MOAs have more of an annuum quality to their flavor profile. Still a danged good chile. I think TFMs are my top favorite yellow Bonnet, but I love the Foodarama/Beth Boyd and the Dreadies.

IMO, Bahama Goats are sorts similar to Bonnets on a lot of ways, but they don't quite fit the classic Yellow Jamaican Scotch Bonnet classification. I'm growing Goats this year as a supplement to my Bonnet project, but I'm not counting then among the Bonnets.

Ps- another classic, delicious, similarly Hab-level on terms of heat chile is the Yellow Fatalii. To me, that is a must-grow pepper. Heat is around the same, but the arc is way different from a Bonnet or Hab. Fataliis come out hot almost right away, whereas a Bonnet will build on ya. Bonus with the Fatalii is, the plants produced a shit ton of pods.

If you like those Bahamian goat things etc., every year i grow this Petenero chili, that should be very similar to those ones and it is really old too, because it was found growing around old Maya ruins.

Never tried goat or moa, but everyone and their mother says in the taste tests that Petenero have that Caribbian chili flavour. All i can say that i like the taste, it is also easy to grow and produces loads of pods if season is good.

I grew MOA yellows from CCN last year. REALLY liked the flavor. This year im trying MOA reds and P. Dreadie. I just made a hot sauce from the MOA yellow yesterday and even though its a bit early to tell, i think its one of the best tasting hab type sauces ive ever tried.
