Arbol Chile Powder

Fiery, Bright, and Unapologetically Bold

Turn up the heat with our freshly ground Arbol Chile Powder, made from slender, sun-dried chiles known for their vivid red color and explosive flavor. These peppers may be small, but they pack a punch—delivering a clean, sharp heat that hits fast and lingers just long enough to make an impression. With a Scoville rating of 15,000–30,000 SHU, Arbol chiles are hotter than jalapeños and rival cayenne in intensity. But it’s not just about the burn—this powder brings a bright, grassy flavor with subtle nutty and smoky undertones, making it a favorite among chefs who want heat with character.

🌿 Freshness You Can Taste:

We grind our Arbol chiles in small batches to preserve their natural oils and volatile compounds. The result? A powder that’s not just hot—it’s alive with flavor. Stored properly, it can stay potent for years, but we bet you’ll be reaching for it daily. A little shake goes a long way.
