Hi C-H's,

FWIW, I contacted the authors of:

J. of Food Sci. ,  Vol. 67, No. 3, 2002
HPLC Analysis of Capsaicinoids Extracted from Whole Orange Habaņero 
Chili Peppers

.......asking why they chose that particular (tilded) spelling of 
habanero. Dr. Starks answered that he likes the Spanish inflection 
for the name, he has seen it spelled both ways in journals and that 
the peppers used in the study were of unknown source obtained from 
local supermarkets.
