2016 AAS Winner! Cornitos are only 5" long and 1 to 1-1/2" wide at the shoulders, very early, deliciously sweet and attractive smaller versions of Carmen and Escamillo, with similar maturity. Perfect for grilling and roasting just like their full-size counterparts or eating fresh. Strong sturdy plants yield prolifically all season long.

Great peppers, prolific and delicious
Jan 15, 2026  |  By Kelli
I grew these for the first time in 2025. Got a late start to the growing season, but these plants did not disappoint. Planted two plants in my garden with minimal fertilizer and they were covered in peppers the whole season long. I had to have picked at least 40 peppers off of each plant. I also had the Cornito Rosso and same thing. Will be growing again next season!
