Cayenne pepper spice organic

Cayenne pepper is not, as the name suggests, a type of pepper, but - like chili - related to paprika. It would actually be more correct to speak of the Cayenne chilli variety. The red fruits are gently dried and then ground into a fine powder.

There are many types of chilli that vary significantly in their heat. Our Cayenne has a bright red color and a medium but intense heat. This is due to the relatively high capsaicin content - although it is significantly hotter than hot peppers, Birdseye chilli is even hotter.
