Manzano: Fruity, Fiery, Unlike Any Other Chile
The apple-shaped pepper with real bite.
THICK FLESH, BOLD HEAT
Manzano, the Pepper Unlike Any Other
Manzano peppers stand apart with their thick, apple-like flesh, black seeds, and fruity, tropical heat that builds slowly and lingers. Popular in traditional salsas across Mexico and South America, manzano brings a distinctive bite that’s hard to substitute. At Latin Specialties, we source manzano peppers for consistent heat and quality, case after case.
Fruity, fiery, and unlike any other chile—manzano stands in a class of its own.
