Details
The Devil’s Tongue is similar in size and shape to the Fatalii, but with smoother skin, smaller size, and sweeter taste. Curvy, pendant shaped peppers have a pointed end and an incredible color. Flavor is reminiscent of a less earthy, sweeter habanero with a bit less heat. Pods start off green, then purple, and matures to a pure white. If they mature a little longer it turns more to a creamy white. These peppers make a great looking hot sauce or salsa. A must for any garden. Non-Isolated.
