White Rawit - 10 pcs seeds

White Rawit is an unusual pale variety of the popular Asian Rawit peppers of the Capsicum annuum species. It stands out for its distinctive almost white fruits, which are thin, elongated and reach up to 5 cm in length. Despite their pale, delicate appearance, the fruits are very hot. Rawit peppers originate from the Bird Pepper type and are extremely popular in Far Eastern cuisine.

White Rawit stands out mainly because of its unusual fruit colour. Rawit peppers are often offered as a colour mix that sometimes includes almost white fruits. Vreeken's managed to select and grow this pale variety separately, creating White Rawit.

The fruits retain the typical Rawit shape — thin, elongated and up to 5 cm long. This is an interesting choice for Asian chilli enthusiasts looking for something more unusual in appearance without compromising on intense heat.
