Intensity 4/5 · Heat 2/5
Almost black, faintly damp, smelling of raisins and wood smoke. It tastes more like dried fruit than fire.

Sun-dried chillies and tart red fruit.
Aleppo- and Urfa-style chillies are dried differently — one bright and fruity, the other sweated overnight until dark, raisined and faintly smoky. Sumac grows on the same hillsides.
