🎯 Description
The pods of the BBG Black Jes are nothing short of breathtaking from the moment they appear. Emerging in a glossy, obsidian-black to deep purple hue, they shimmer with an almost metallic sheen under sunlight. Occasionally, they display striking red-orange "bleeding" around the calyx, giving each pepper a fierce, flame-kissed appearance—almost as if they’ve been branded by fire.
As they ripen, the magic continues. Some pods retain their dark exterior, while others blush into rich burgundy or reveal unexpected peach and crimson undertones—a captivating contrast against the shadowy backdrop. These transformations make every harvest visually thrilling, with plants producing a spectrum of colors at once.
Each pepper is oblong in shape, measuring about 4–6 cm (1.5–2.5 inches), and features a firm, slightly wrinkled skin that hints at its Chinense lineage. When sliced open, the aroma is unmistakable: a bold blend of fruity sweetness and floral notes, laced with a hint of citrus and smoke.
But don’t be fooled by its charming scent—this pepper doesn’t hold back. That initial sweetness gives way to an explosive, fast-building heat that climbs rapidly and lingers intensely. It starts on the tip of the tongue with a tingling fire, then spreads across the palate with a molten crescendo that firmly places it in the Very Hot to Superhot category.
This is a pepper that commands respect—a stunning fusion of beauty, flavor, and blistering power.
