Sugar rush Stripey Pepper
🔥🔥
Scoville: 25,000 - 50,000
The Sugar Rush Stripey Pepper is one of the most visually spectacular peppers in the world, celebrated for its vibrant striping, exceptional sweetness, and fruity flavor. Developed from the famous Sugar Rush lineage, this variety produces elongated, wrinkled pods adorned with dramatic streaks of peach, red, orange, and gold. Each pepper develops its own unique pattern, creating a stunning hand-painted appearance that makes the plant look more like an ornamental display than a food crop.
Size
The fruits typically grow 3 to 5 inches long and have a slender, slightly twisted shape with gently wrinkled skin. As the peppers ripen, their colors intensify, transforming into a dazzling mix of warm tones that stand out brilliantly against the green foliage. The plants are highly productive and often become loaded with colorful fruit throughout the season.
Taste
The Sugar Rush Stripey is famous for its incredibly sweet, tropical flavor. The pods offer bright notes of peach, apricot, citrus, and tropical fruit, followed by a pleasant medium heat that builds gradually without overpowering the sweetness. The flesh is crisp, juicy, and packed with flavor, making it one of the most enjoyable peppers to eat fresh directly from the plant.
