The fruit skin is bright red with a distinct sheen, while the flesh, 5–6 mm thick, is juicy, sweet, and aromatic with subtle anise undertones. The pepper has a dense, crunchy flesh without bitterness, making it versatile for fresh consumption, snack preparation, and canning.

The 'Spanish Sweet' variety is resistant to cold and various diseases, enhancing its reliability in cultivation. Historically known since the 19th century, this variety gained popularity due to its large fruits and outstanding flavor. Thanks to its characteristics and versatility, this pepper is an excellent choice for both home cultivation and commercial production.
