Details

Cayenne pepper not only offers heat but also subtly enhances other flavors, which helped make it popular in early American cooking. In older spice trade definitions, any pepper that was hotter-than-hot was called "cayenne," after an area of South America which once exported super-hot peppers. Cayenne pepper ranges from 35,000 to 70,000 Scoville heat units. This pepper adds zip to any dish, and when a recipe calls for chile pepper heat, this is the pepper you want.

Fruity Piquant heat

Great fresh flavor and fruity piquant heat. So dependable, really enjoying using Spice House at work in my professional kitchens and at home.

Pure and Fresh.
I bought it not only for cooking but also for medicinal purposes. Great to stop a cut from bleeding. If taken internally helps with circulation and inflamation among other things. Makes a wonderful tincture.

Won't buy spices anywhere else

The cayenne pepper is amazing, it smells so tangy and strong. Has a delicious taste!

Good.

Great Heat

this is great Cayenne. Fairly hot -- a little goes a long way, but it is smooth with none of the brassy aftrtaste of cheaper versons
