Mora Quintto Chilli Seeds

Mora Quintto aka Pimenta Barra do Ribeiro Chilli Seeds. The Mora Quintto aka Pimenta Barra do Ribeiro (C. Baccatum) is an absolutely stunning chilli from Brazil. While we always use the same naming convention as our suppliers of the seeds, we do believe that this ciultivar also comes by the name Pimenta Barra do Ribeiro.

A very attractive, bushy and compact plant that has oval to heat shaped pods that point upwards (Facing Heaven). Pods start off Cream with a Purple blush and ripen through orange to a very bright Red. Plants can reach in excess of 1m if grown in soil, but will remain smaller in small containers.

The aroma is fresh and citrusy. Typical Baccatum flavour. Clean flavour with a slight citrus taste. A touch of sweetness. The heat is around 10,000 – 15,000 SHU. A nice lingering peppery burn on these.

These would make a super powder or could be pickled or used fresh in salsas. But this chilli is really about the look. This is a unforgettably beautiful cultivar that will add instant colour and beauty to the garden.
