Description

The Habanada is a remarkable heat-free habanero developed by plant breeder Michael Mazourek at Cornell University, offering all the complex tropical, citrusy flavor of the habanero with absolutely no capsaicin heat. Its small, lantern-shaped pods ripen to a vivid orange with an intensely fruity, floral aroma and natural sweetness that makes it accessible to everyone. Used in gourmet cooking, cocktails, and hot sauces where habanero flavor is desired without the fire.
