Review
When I cut open the pod I noticed a lot of oil droplets coating the inside. That should have been an indication to go cautiously. I had seen a couple other reviews of this pepper got the impression it wasn’t too hot, so I ate half a pod. It was hotter than I anticipated but not super hot. The heat was very intense but short lived. I didn’t like the flavor much fresh. It had a habby/chinensy type flavor, but it was very clean. A little bitter toward the end.
