Description
The Georgia Flame is a sweet, mildly hot pepper from the Republic of Georgia in the Caucasus region, prized for its thick, juicy walls and vibrant deep red color. Its long, tapered pods ripen to a glossy red with a pleasantly sweet, slightly spicy flavor well suited for roasting and pickling. A staple in Georgian cuisine, it is a key ingredient in the famous ajika pepper paste and is used in many traditional Caucasian dishes.
