It’s the rainforest pepper! Extremely juicy and loaded with freaky fresh flavor. This yung baccatum packs a nice fruit taste with a dope presentation. Smaller pods with a weird bottom to them and quite thick skinned. This pep is a personal favorite of one of the cultivators of this underground internet blog™.

Sort of like slowed down nightcore, but with peppers.
Aji Golden Pepper
The Aji Golden is one of the most chillwave peppers we’ve come across in our long pepper journey across Middle Earth. And we’ve arrived at Meduseld.
Lemon Drop Pepper
Origin: Peru
A bit spicy and a pungent baccatum! Another Peruvian favorite. Also called the Aji Limon, or Kellu Uchu in Peru.
Similar to the Aji Cito or Aji Pineapple, but, a sharper taste. Very floral and tastes a bit like lemons, especially when cooked. To clear up any confusion relating to similarly spelled pods, check this out.
Aji Brazilian Starfish Pepper
Home: Brazil, Peru
Here cometh that Aji Brazilian Starfish. It is a strange lil pep from Brazil, which should probably not come as a shock to you. Sources state it is Agent Mulder’s favorite pepper. The Aji Brazilian Starfish is very similar in weirdness, taste and shape to the Bishop’s Hat Pepper.
Weird and great taste!
Very chillwave, sweet and tasty, with a clean baccatum floral. Tastes almost like the nectar from honeysuckles. There seem to be a few different varieties of the Aji Brazilian Starfish floating around.
Compared to the posing specimen, some have more ridges along the side and are shaped like a pumpkin. Ripens from green to red. These are perfect for fresh snacking while you’re crying and watching Degrassi.
One of the weirdest and BEST peppers.
Aji Cito Pepper
Holy wow. The smaller, spicier, and more pungent version of the Aji Amarillo. It’s like being punched in the face, but you like it more than usual!
Strong, floral and clean baccatum taste and apparently the hottest in the entire species. Smaller pods, around 2-3 inches. Much tastier when cooked, the fruit flavor really shines like a new car. It’s one of the fastest peppers there is–can reach up to 30mph on land. Continue reading Aji Cito Pepper
Tequila Sunrise Pepper
Ornamental with minimal heat, very tasty pepper. A hit with at least 2 people I know (the cultivators of this underground internet blog). Ripens from green to orange. Growing in the Florida sun, turns into a bright red orange.
Aji Pineapple Pepper
Really strange, pungent capsicum baccatum pepper. A fairly well known underground cultivar. Can taste almost soapy at times like cilantro, in an interesting floral way.
Very strong burst of citrusy baccatum flavor on first bite, similar to the Aji Cito and even the Lemon Drop. And it’s no slouch in the department of heat, got a nice kick to it! It does taste a little bit like pineapple. Really delicious baked with coconut oil and a great alternative to Cayenne type dishes.
Aji Amarillo Pepper
Type: Capsicum Baccutum
Origin: Peru
What does an Aji Amarillo taste like? Ted Danson would simply call it, “Heaven.” It has a fruity flavor that is complex and well rounded especially when cooked–almost like a spicy mango, apricot or carrot. People have compared it to tasting like sunshine!1
Amarillo means yellow in Spanish, however, this fruit ripens to dark orange. Even unripe, the green Aji Amarillo has a splendid taste with great heat!
