Dried Wild Chiltepin Peppers are one of North America's oldest and most revered native chilies. Hand-harvested, and grown at our farm, these tiny, round peppers are celebrated for their bold, smoky-fruity flavour and quick, intense heat that dissipates almost as quickly as it arrives.
Often referred to as bird peppers or bird's eye chilies of the Americas, wild chiltepins (Capsicum annuum var. glabriusculum) are considered the wild ancestor of many modern cultivated peppers. Their complex flavour and culinary heritage have made them a prized ingredient among chefs, chili enthusiasts, and lovers of authentic Southwestern and Mexican cuisine.
Our premium dried wild chiltepin peppers are carefully selected and gently dried to preserve their distinctive aroma, natural heat, and vibrant flavour.
