7 Pot Brainstrain Peach

7 Pot Brainstrain Peach is a peach-coloured Brain Strain selection traced back to the 7 Pot line. It is described as a peach variety of the superhot Brain Strain, with plump, heavily wrinkled pods and the brain-like folding that defines the strain. Fruit is described as fruity and very spicy, with some sale listings also describing a citrusy edge and thin walls that make it easy to dry.

Its history sits inside the Brain Strain line developed from Trinidad 7 Pot material by David Cappiello in North Carolina through selective breeding for an unusually wrinkled, brain-like surface. The peach form circulates as a colour variant of that line rather than as a separately documented old landrace or heirloom.

Pod shape is consistently described as bumpy, convoluted, and strongly folded, but there is some variation in how the tail is described. One peach listing describes characteristic curled tails, while core Brain Strain descriptions usually describe the fruit as flatter-ended with any tail recessed into the pod. That suggests the peach form is being circulated with some phenotype variation under the same name.

The naming is also a little loose in circulation. The same pepper appears as 7 Pot Brainstrain Peach, Peach Brain Strain, and Peach Brain Pepper. Across those names, the shared identity is a peach-ripening, brain-textured superhot tied to the Brain Strain line.
