The Bane Strain Peach pepper is a Capsicum chinense hybrid created by Kevin Bane, known for its super-hot heat (800,000–1,200,000 SHU) and a sweet, fruity, citrusy flavor profile that develops with a slow-building burn. The plants produce heavy yields of pods that ripen to a peach color, featuring slightly bumpy, rigid skin. It is a cross of the Peach Ghost, White Ghost, and Butch T peppers, originating in the USA.
