The Kambuzi, literally translated as little goat since these animals enjoy eating its leaves, originates from Malawi, a district in the southeast of Africa.
It is a small, round fruit of yellow, orange, or red color whose flavor resembles the habanero and is mainly used to prepare sauces and seasonings.
This chili is very hot, with a value on the Scoville scale ranging from 50,000 to 175,000 units.
