Murupi Yellow
The Murupi Yellow doesn't just look great, but it also carries a wonderful flavor and habanero-level heat. Hailing from Brazil, the plant is quite the producer – I harvested well over a hundred of these attractive, twisted yellow pods. More details below

The Murupi Yellow was probably my most productive plant for the 2020 season. Reaching about three feet in height and a bit larger in width, the branches were consistently packed with pods in various stages of ripening for months – well into October in the northern VIrginia region.
Topping out at a low-to-medium habanero level of heat, the crinkling fruit also produce a similar flavor profile. Lightly sweet and fruity up front, there is also a hint of grassy notes and a distant floral trait. You can check out the full taste test here.
I’ve found that the flavor allows these fruit to be employed in just about any fashion. It’s a nice addition to a blended pepper sauce or if you need a little extra kick in your salsa, it’s a great compliment there, as well.
