The Pequin, or Piquin, Pepper is a hot chili pepper cultivar that produces small, 2cm long, peppers that grow upright rather than hanging. Peppers ripen from green to bright red and are very spicy, with a Scoville Heat rating of 30,000–60,000 units. They have a citrusy, smoky, nutty flavor, and are often pickled or added to salsas, hot sauces, and soups. Pequin peppers have a low germination rate (15%) and can take 2-4 months to germinate.
