[CH] Fatali report

Well, my Fatalis finally ripened. Beautiful little suckers they are, too,
all brilliant gold, crinkly, and pointed. I had to keep the first one just
to marvel at for a while - couldn't bear to cut into it to taste it!

I wonder if they might be a bit frost-tolerant, considering how much later
they performed than all the rest of the peppers in my garden.

Anyway, I finally broke down and tasted one today. The aroma was very
hab-like, except more so, but its fruitiness didn't seem to carry over into
the taste. The heat took a second or two to deliver its full impact, which
seemed to be less than that of your average hab. I ended up using a couple
of them to make the Red Savina hot sauce recipe, which was just recently
posted to the list.

And there you have it....
