Can’t be hotter than Naga Jolokias and with skoville units under 5000 it’s closer to a Jalapeno.

It's not so much the heat, as the flavor. Some varieties are very mild, and roasting brings out good, smokey flavor. Others are a little warmer, and some are hotter than jalapenos. I prefer the warmer and hot varieties. My wife prefers them a little milder.

I wasn't talking about the heat, just the flavor. Most Hatch chilis are mild to my taste. But that flavor. Nothing like an insipid Anaheim. The Hatch cultivar has departed from the original NM chili stock.
