The Paper Lantern Habanero (Capsicum chinense) is a distinctive habanero variety known for its elongated, lantern-shaped pods, exceptional productivity, and fiery heat. It typically reaches 250,000–400,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU), making it one of the hottest habanero types. Originating from the USA, this variety is prized by gardeners for its early maturity, adaptability to cooler climates, and abundant yields. The peppers develop a striking bright red colour when ripe, accompanied by a fruity, slightly smoky flavour that makes them excellent for sauces, salsas, and drying.
