[Bach] a hot sauce

[rrayment1 at comcast.net]

Nagaraj, 

They are slightly hotter with a similar flavor (not quite as full flavored).  The pepper itself is not quite as meaty as the Red Savina.  They seem to be slower to take off when growing, but I get a good yield here in San Jose.

Boy that is am impressive collections of peppers you are growing - i have read a lot about the bhut jalokia - never tasted one. How does that compare to the red Savinas?

Jim, 

When Joni and I owned Salsas, Etc!, we would bring in 500 pounds that we would get direct from GNS Spices.  Alan kind of took over for a while until GNS wouldn't support our smaller buy.  I have been growing the Red Savinas, Bhut Jolakia, Devil's Tongue and Biker Billy Jalapenos.  I yeild about 10 pounds of each which supports my habit.  I get my seedlings every year from Cross Country Nurseries.  They have 300 or so different chiles available.

It seems like some BACH person used to import Red Savinas to the 
Bay Area sometime back. I could misremember, 

Another I would like to be able to get fresh is Barkers from NM.
