🐍 Sepia Serpent - The dark superhot with the fiery bite

The Sepia Serpent is an impressive superhot from the Capsicum chinense line, known for its deep brown ripe color, intense aromatic flavor and phenomenal heat. The pepper has a rough, dragon-skin-like texture and a shape that ranges from elongated to slightly twisted - a real eye-catcher for fans of dark, powerful chilis.

During ripening, the fruit changes from olive green to warm chocolate brown, sometimes with shades of red. The flavor is rich and complex: smoky, slightly earthy, with underlying sweetness familiar from many chocolate varieties in the superhot category.
