Product specifications

Quality Parameters

Byadgi Dry Red Chilli is universally celebrated across the international spice market as the ultimate "colouring chilli." Characterised by its distinctively elongated, slender shape and heavily wrinkled skin, this premium variety is the premier choice for global buyers who demand a striking, deep crimson-red hue without intense heat. Native to Karnataka but heavily aggregated and traded through India's major spice corridors, Byadgi chillies belong to the Capsicum annuum L. family and provide an unmatchable aesthetic boost to global culinary formulations. Byadgi chilli is highly sought after by food manufacturers, premium paprika blenders, and natural oleoresin extraction industries. It delivers a rich, vibrant restaurant-red presentation while keeping the flavour profile smooth, accessible, and completely free of aggressive capsaicin burn.
