Mirasol Mosco (Pueblo)

The Mirasol Mosco originates from Pueblo, CO, and obviously the basis for its nickname, the Pueblo Chile. The term Mirasol translates to "looking at the sun", so you can imagine the younger pods can be found growing pointed upwards. Though over time as the pods grow larger we've found that they drop and end up looking like normal chile plants. Pueblos have very thick walls and a slightly sweater flavor making them one of the finest tasting varieties outside of New Mexico. The Pueblo has been on our grow list since we discovered our own source for seed.
