I visited this week after looking up details on website. The choice of chilli's are amazing, from seeds to take and grow yourself to plants. The sauces go from slight warmth to OMG my mouth is on fire!! The best part though was the chilli chocolate, I have tried so called chilli chocolate before but nothing compares to this, the afterburn was noticeable but not unpleasent. They are in the process of producing a coffee chilli chocolate which i had the great pleasure of being given a sample. In my honest opnion the sooner they get this out in the market the better. My 3 favourtie food's combined into one heavenly bite......... fantastic!!

I've been going to Devon on holiday since I was about 5 (22 odd years!!) and I found this place recently, though I've been eating the chocolate for a while!!! It's the absolute bobbins and the chillies you can but are soooo fresh that even a non-chilli head would have to agree that they are amazing!! The freshness of the poduce here is second to non and the sauces are amazing (and I've been importing the stuff for years!!!). I can highly recommend both types of Habenero sauce (red small bottle and yellow big bottle), the ring of fire chilli sauce and chipotle mild sauce is lovely!!! Just try the Santa Fe chillies!! Better that Jalapenos!! The Ring Of Fire (never even heard of them before I visited) are rather special too!!!

Had a really great day today at the chilli festival - food, drink, tour and atmosphere all first class. Have already been a fan for a couple of years - especially of the chilli chocolate which is to die for - if you like Green and Blacks then you will love this!!!!!

Brilliant company, their mail order service is great. Their web site is packed full of useful and helpful info and some lovely photos of the chillis growing. Their sauces, in particular, are wonderful - try their Habenero or hot apple chili jelly - superb in a cheese sarnie! Their gift selection bag is great value and will last even the most enthusiastic chilli-head ages!

I have been using the South Devon Chilli Farm for the last 3 years & every time I do business with them, it's a pleasure. The sheer variety of fresh, dried & smoked chillies is the best I've ever encountered, & they also make a wide variety of chilli-related products which are all delivered in a prompt fashen to ensure maximum freshness. To cap it all off, they sell plants & seeds, which means that every year my garden becomes inundated with chilli plants! They are also kind enough to put hints & tips on their website (& also reference other sources they find useful), & any other queries can be sorted out with a quick e-mail.

A fantastic place to visit with thousands of chilli plants in all shapes and sizes. There are loads of sauces and preserves to taste, all made on the farm.

I love their apple and chilli jelly, when I'm knackered after a gig it really spices me up.

In less than three years they have turned a "kitchen" industry into a thoroughly professional production unit. Their directr mail service is excellent.

I have used their postal service to get hold of some wierd and wonderful chilli peppers for my husband - always been impressed by the quality and speed of service and happy to answer any questions - just wish we lived nearer to them!

They are totally dedicated to developping chillis as a farmed product. They sell raw chillis as well as chilli based products.
