philippine chili (siling labuyo) explore

            The siling labuyo plant is a perennial with small, tapering fruits, often 2-3, at a node.[3] The fruits of most varieties are red, some are yellow, purple or black. The fruits are very pungent.

In Filipino supermarkets there are now red bird's eye chilies that are commonly labeled as siling labuyo but are actually a chili pepper variety from the species Capsicum annuum[1] that came by way of Taiwan. These are said to pack less heat than the native siling labuyo but are popular with retailers because their color and shape are more consistent and thus beautiful and have a longer shelf life.

The siling labuyo is small but packs quite a lot of heat. At one time it was even listed as the hottest chili in the Guinness Book of World Records but other hotter varieties of chili have since been identified. It measures around 80,000-100,000 Scoville units which is at the lower end of the range for the hotter habanero chili.
