Most of the Red and Green Chile grown in the Southwest is of the "Anaheim" variety. Chimayo Chile comes from a less common strain of pepper, Capsicum annum Chimayo, which has adapted over generations to live in the dry and arid climate of the high plains of New Mexico. The distinct flavor of this highly prized chile results partly from its unique genetic make up, but also from the geographic location that it is grown in! To be considered authentic Chimayo Chile, it must be grown in Chimayo, New Mexico. Order some right now!
