Only Site
Spicesontheweb is the only site that I have found that stocks proper, fresh Facing Heaven chillies. I'm really into Sichuan food so when this shop was out of stock for a few months, I searched everywhere and bought from various other sources, online and in person, they were all really bad quality: too dry and brittle, bland, smelling weird. So glad Spicesontheweb is back in stock with these amazing chillies. They are soft and fresh with their distinctive flavour and scent. A must for all Sichuan dishes and they make for amazing chilli oil.
