Tango at the market.

I went to the local farmers market, and this is what I have found. I'm very happy to have so many different varieties to try. 
None of the sellers could give any info on the varieties they were selling.
Here's a group photo. I'll post more info on those that I try one by one.
 


:cool:
 
Here's some info:
 
1
Sold as "piri piri". Thin walls. Lots of seeds. Very pleasant kind of heat for my taste. 
 
2
Sold as "cayenne". Bitter when eaten fresh. I'm not a fan of bitter. I'll dry those and see how they taste powdered.

This one is interesting. Delicate taste. Taste and smell similar to other brown pods I have tested. 
Heat builds up very slowly. Gets serious after a while. Kind of ear-ringing kind of burn. Finishes on the tongue.


 
7
Delicate taste with a little fruity aftertaste. Building heat. Some bitterness for a moment.
Pleasant burn all over the mouth and tongue.
 

 
10
Habanero-like smell (quite strong) and heat. Visible oil deposits inside. Tongue burning and numbing burn.

Looks like something that I see in many supermarkets here in Poland. Usually I see them red. The red ones can be completely mild or surprise with a decent heat.
This one has no or very little heat, not much taste, wattery kind of.

Cherry Pepper? Testes "peppery". Has some heat. Full of seeds.
