Czechoslovakian Black: The fascinating play of colours from the East

An eye-catcher in every garden

Czechoslovakian Black, often simply referred to as Czech Black, is a variety of chili that attracts attention in every garden or on every balcony. With its unique purple to almost black leaves, flowers and shoots, it gives any environment a mysterious and exotic touch. But it's not just their external appearance that impresses: their juicy and sweet fruits with a short ripening time make it possible to harvest even twice a year.

From the balcony to the kitchen: an all-rounder in culinary delights

The Czechoslovakian Black impresses not only with its appearance, but also with its taste. Its thick-fleshed fruit, which changes from an impressive black to green to a rich dark red as it ripens, is a highlight in every kitchen. Whether freshly prepared in salsas and sauces or dried and processed into an aromatic black chili powder - this type of chili offers a wide range of culinary options and enchants with its taste.
