"The Pueblo chile (named for its hometown) is quite unique. Unlike most chiles that grow off the stem, this chile grows upward towards the sun, giving it the nickname Mirasol, which means “looks at the sun” in Spanish. With the high altitude, drastic shifts in weather patterns and unique growth pattern, this chile provides a complex flavor profile that packs a stronger punch, all bundled up in a more robust frame."
