Pepper Description: In 2012, we crossed the standard black Thai pepper with our favorite Thai, the Thai Dragon. This produced a pepper plants with smaller pods, better flavor and more fruits. We now present to you, the Black Thai Dragon. If you like Thai cooking or any spicy Asian-style cuisine, you will appreciate the Black Thai Dragon. The 3 in Chiles are about six times hotter than Jalapenos. The plants are really prolific and beautiful … each plant can produce up to 200 Chiles! Flavor is outstanding, with that dry but nutty, hot pungency Asian cooking demands. Use Black Thai Dragon fresh, but when frost threatens, bring in its heavily laden branches and hang them upside down to dry for a colorful and abundant supply of pungent flavorful Chiles all year long. Beautiful dark purple pods ripen to red.
