Yaki Panther Black: A Bold Hybrid of Heat and Elegance
The Yaki Panther Black is a stunning hybrid pepper that blends the heat and complexity of the Yaki Blue with the unique traits of the Black Panther pepper. The Black Panther, a cross between the Bhut Jolokia Red and Pimenta de Neyde, lends this hybrid its intense heat and dramatic coloration, while the Yaki Blue contributes to its unique pod shape and vibrant appeal.
This hybrid features strikingly dark foliage and pods that ripen through a spectrum of colors, starting as a deep purple-black and transitioning to red at full maturity. The pods exhibit a wrinkled texture, indicative of their superhot lineage, and average 2–3 inches in length. With a Scoville Heat Unit (SHU) rating of over 1,100,000, the Yaki Panther Black delivers searing heat balanced by complex fruity and earthy undertones.
This pepper is a showstopper in the garden, with its dark, dramatic appearance and robust plant growth, reaching up to 4 feet in height. Its fiery flavor makes it an excellent choice for hot sauces, chili powders, or any recipe that demands intense heat.
