Exciting chillies The special thing about chilli or hot peppers is the capsaicin in each and every pepper which creates a sort of addictive effect to its consumer. You will need an increasing amount of capsaicin to feel the same rush over again. The varieties we have bred and selected for you contain little to a lot of capsaicin, making them perfect for both the beginning and more adventurous eater. The pungency, or spicy heat, is measured with the Scoville scale, indicating the amount of capsaicin a chilli pepper variety contains. 29
