Justchili Organic Birdeye Chilli whole

The Birdseye chili originates from Africa and is a close relative of the Tabasco chili. In Africa, the plants are planted around fields in some regions as a protection against hungry elephants. Therefore, one should be cautious when dosing, as their 100,000 Scoville units can send full-grown pachyderms fleeing. The flavor is similar to that of other original chilis like Piquin and Tepin, being clear and aromatic. However, its heat comes on quickly and directly.
