Pemento da Arnoia

Pemento da Arnoia is a green pepper of the Capsicum annuun L. species traditionally grown in the area of only 23 km² in the Province of Ourense, in the south of the Autonomous Community of Galicia.

These bell peppers are green-colored with smooth and shiny skin and mellow aroma. Their flavor is quite sweet with a little bit of a spicy bite. They are harvested by hand while they are still unripe to preserve their green color.
