🔥 Hatch Ms. Junie — The Blister Queen of Hatch

Bold, blistering, and bred for performance, the Hatch Ms. Junie chile is a standout among New Mexico’s hottest cultivars. Developed in 2014 by growers at Solar Dry Chile Farm—the same farm that gave rise to Big Jim and Lumbre—Ms. Junie was designed to deliver maximum heat, thick walls, and massive yields. Named with affection and fire, this chile is a favorite among roasters and heat-seekers alike.

Its pods stretch 6 to 10 inches, with smooth green skin that turns red quickly as it matures. With a Scoville rating of 10,000 to 14,000 SHU, Ms. Junie rivals Lumbre in intensity but offers a slightly sweeter green flavor before the burn kicks in. Its thick flesh makes it ideal for roasting, stuffing, and fire-forward sauces. Among Hatch varieties, it’s one of the most productive plants ever developed, growing up to 3 feet tall and loaded with fruit.
