Wiri Wiri Chilli whole delivers 100,000–150,000 Scoville and a fruity profile with notes of tomato, cherry and light citrus. The whole berries release their heat slowly – ideal for cooking along, pickling or for spiced oils.
· Category: Chilli, whole
· Taste: very hot, fruity, tomato-like, citrusy
· Use: salsas, stews, Caribbean curries, pickling in oil/vinegar, spiced oils, stocks/broths

My tip: I soak the berries briefly in hot water and blend them with roasted tomatoes, a little garlic and salt into a clear Salsa Roja.
Origin & Story
The Wiri Wiri chilli originally comes from Guyana and belongs to the species Capsicum frutescens – just like the Tabasco chilli. Thanks to its cherry-like shape and aromatic depth, it's especially prized by cooks who want heat with substance. Our fruits come from selected growing areas in Ecuador, where they ripen under optimal conditions. After harvesting they are dried whole, untreated and gently – all-natural and ready to use straight away.
Highlights
Wiri Wiri chillies reach 100,000–150,000 Scoville – hotter than jalapeños, yet at the same time distinctly fruitier in aroma. In flavour the chilli recalls ripe tomatoes, cherry and light citrus notes. The firm structure of the whole fruit ensures a slow release of heat and a clear, precise aroma profile. Ideal for cooking along, pickling or infusing oils.
Quality
The Wiri Wiri chillies come from controlled cultivation in Ecuador. The fruits are fully ripened, hand-picked, air-dried and carefully selected – no additives, no anti-caking agents, no technical aids.
The best spices have always inspired me to create new dishes. Only the best is good enough to reach the very top – for you, in your kitchen.
100% natural. Just the way I use it myself, every day.
Tip from Tobias Funke
I soak the chillies in hot water, then blend them with roasted tomatoes, a little garlic and some salt – the result is a Salsa Roja with clear heat and aromatic depth.
