When considering the relative hotness of chiles on our list, remember that chiles are quite variable in their pungency, even when harvested at the same time and off the same plant. Also, be aware when considering the price of fresh or dried peppers that imported chiles may be older, have less flavor and have lost their pungency and deep aroma due to sea miles traveled and warehousing time. Local peppers, like ours, are fresher and richer in flavor, aroma and heat.
