Notes

Orange Tyger is an easily grown highly productive chilli. Excellent in the border or in pots. If you like hot chillies, this is a winner.

Culinary

Great citrus flavour and amazingly complex pungency. The first sharp heat fades quickly to be replaced by a slower more enduring heat. The heat seems to affect different parts of the mouth at different times, making a really interesting experience for the chilli lover. Orange Tyger is an essential variety for Thai style cooking, and brilliant chopped in stir fries with prawns, chicken or beef. Also dries well.
