The Aji Charapitas are not available. We expect them to be available again from summer 2025.
The Aji Charapita is also called wild Peruvian pepper. It is a very small but definitely spicy chilipepper, comparable in spiciness to a rawit pepper. The small peppers have a powerful, fruity and citrus-like flavor, similar to a yellow habanero, only slightly less spicy. A well-known side dish with the Charapita is criolla, a mixture of red onion, lemon juice, salt water, cilantro and crushed Aji Charapita. They are also used as peppercorns in cooking.
In South America, a chili pepper is a standard addition to a dish. Many well-known Aji chilies have their origins in South America, and these are known for their fruity and spicy flavor, including this Aji Charapita.

Store the fresh Aji Charapita chilies in the refrigerator or a cool dark place in a pantry, cellar closet, barn, etc. Ideal temperature is between 10°C and 13°C, then the peppers will stay good the longest, about 7 to 14 days. It is also possible to freeze the peppers. Click here for more information on freezing peppers or other ways to keep them for a long time.
