Hi Bill- happy to have you here!
Are these prices wholesale?
Do you sell the Mirasol fresh or is it dried? I've never seen it marketed
fresh. Is it similar to anything else?


> Jalapeno and Habanero being the best sellers.

I love chiles and I'm also sad to see jalapenos sell so well. They have the
"grassiest" flavor and the crudest heat. I try and ster them towards
serranos.

It's also apparently the hardest chile to pronounce. I've heard everything
from "ha-la-pee-cane-yos" to "ha-la-pee-nos".
