About Puya Chiles / Acerca del Chile Puya

Our Dried Puya Chiles (Chile Puya) are smaller and hotter than the more famous guajillo — same family, more fire. Medium-hot heat (5,000–8,000 SHU) with bright fruity notes (cherry, berry) and a smoky finish. The "secret weapon" chile of Mexican home cooks who want guajillo flavor with extra punch.

El chile puya seco es como el primo bravo del chile guajillo — mismo sabor afrutado pero con más picante y más carácter. Ideal para salsas con personalidad, marinadas para birria, salsa borracha, salsa de tamarindo y para potenciar moles que necesitan más calor.
