    Used in a handmade hot sauce (Fortune Flavours the Bald). Delicious pepper!

    Lovely peppers! Jalapeno is a love-hate relation and I love them 😀
    Great taste ! Always adding them when preparing taco’s. A+

    Sorry for a german review! 😉

    Super fast delivery... Perfectly fresh produce... at an unbeatable price! Keep up the great work! 🙂

  4. Uyt den roockende Keetel (verified owner)

    Super fresh, delicious, and a great size for stuffing... and for this price, amazing!
    My only note is that the heat level has gone from spicy to hot in the last year, with quite a difference from one pepper to another.
    This makes them an unpredictable factor for consistent flavor in catering, as not everyone appreciates this.

    Delivery was fast. Just in time for lunch; I sliced a Jalapeño into my omelet. Delicious! Compared to the ones from my supermarket, these are quite a bit spicier and have more flavor too. Awesome!

    I've ordered Jalapeños from Westland Peppers multiple times now and I'm absolutely thrilled – super fresh produce and the chilies have a really nice heat that you don't usually find in store-bought Jalapeños. The customer service is also absolutely top-notch; one delivery got messed up by the Dutch Post, and after contacting WP, another delivery was sent out free of charge and arrived safely. Many thanks for that, and it certainly won't be my last order! 🙂

    I've eaten Jalapeños many times (and grown my own in the summer) and I'm a huge fan of their mild, hot flavor, super tasty with cream cheese on the BBQ or smoked. Unfortunately, these were a different caliber, making them inedible when stuffed (even though thoroughly deseeded) – people's mouths were on fire! So, for us, it was a big disappointment.

    Super tasty and fresh!
