Description

"Meco" chipotles are smoked for about twice as long as "Moritas" which gives them a more intense and richer flavor.. Most chileheads view the Chipotle "Meco" chipotle as the better quality of the two and if you've never experienced a Chipotle "Meco" you are in for a real treat!. Chipotle “Meco” Chiles are considered a medium heat chile and come in at 5,000 to 10,000 SHU (Scoville Heat Units).. The flavor profile is smoky with a slightly spicy, grassy fruitiness. The "Meco" also tends to hold up better than the "Morita" to stronger flavors.
