Overview
The Fatalii is a Central African Capsicum chinense with bright yellow, wrinkled pods and one of the best citrus flavors of any hot pepper. You get a clean lemon-lime taste up front, then a sharp, fast-building burn well above a habanero. Hot sauce makers have prized it for years for fruit-forward yellow sauces.
