Padron

Price range: $3.50 through $90.00

A small pepper in size that is mildly spicy BUT sometimes hot! Said to be a game of “Spanish Roulette” when consuming this pepper. The more mature the peppers are the spicier they get. Maturity of 80-85 days.

Originating in Galicia, Spain it is mostly eaten in its green unripened stage as “Tapas”, a traditional Spanish appetizer.
