Piment d'Ville, Espelette peppers grown in Boonville,CA

These arrived this morning as a gift from my sister. They are the same peppers as the Basque peppers, but grown in Boonville, California, about 120 miles north of San Francisco. As far as I know, the area around the village of Espelette and the farm in Boonville are the only places in the world that grow these flavorful peppers commercially.  Many cooks and chefs feel that the Boonville Barn Collective peppers are more interesting, and I'm inclined to agree.
