Why real chile only grows here
Champagne's got its valley. We have ours.

Desert UV burns flavor deep into every pepper.

The plant fights harder. The chile gets deeper.

Elephant Butte runoff. Minerals you can taste in every bite.
The Proof Is in the Chile
absolutely gorgeous in every way. i have ordered numerous ristras from this company and have never been disappointed. they arte fabulous.
The Ristra was perfect. We got the treated version for decor
A wonderful selection of ristras were shipped. I order every year and they last for close to a year where I live. Great for the Christmas holidays. Thank you!



Hatch green chili is awesome. All of their products are very good. I will continue to order from Hatch green chili.
It's beautiful and arrived on time and perfectly packaged.
Fresh and perfect non edible decoration to bring a little piece of New Mexico home!
The Ristra I received is beautiful!!! Its hanging in my kitchen, and the peppers are also delicious. I almost don't want to eat any of them and retain the beauty of the 1.5 foot long Ristra. Thank you!
Beautiful, bright color and very shiney. Replaced rista I've had for over 10 years - couldn't believe how much difference the color is. Love my purchase although cost of shipping was a little over the top...but cheaper than driving to New Mexico!
Love it! Even better than expected
The ristra is a great product. The first one I ordered lasted for years. This one however arrived crushed at the bottom and shedding its peppers daily. I reached out to customer service and hopefully they will rectify.
The ristra I ordered has just arrived, and looks very nice. It is now hanging in our kitchen. Thanks.
Beautiful, colorful, fresh, and delicious! I’m enjoying my Ristra even as a new addition for my decor. Although I found that they are delicate as the peppers dry, and will drop seeds. No problem, I now have my Ristra as not only my decor in my kitchen, but a nice place to gather the fallen seeds and some of the Chile’s as they fall onto ...

These were replacement Ristras for some that we have had since the beginning of Covid and that were literally blown to bits in the recent rain and winds here in Southern California.The new ones from Hatch are plump and gorgeous! We have two on our front doors and one in back over the outdoor fireplace. We're delighted! M&C
The ristra arrived in excellent condition. It is a beautiful, full and vibrantly colored ristra and I will definitely buy more once it has faded over time from the harsh Californian sun!
Great in taco sauce.
So beautiful. It is a work of art. Hanging on my front door for Christmas.
Very fresh and beautifully made! Many ristras start shedding chiles as soon as they’re hung. Not this one! I will definitely order again.
I looked hard to find a beautiful chili garland for a housewarming gift. Southwestern chilis made this offering a tasty bonus, and it’s perfect.
Ristra & Wreath FAQs
A few small pods may loosen in transit — that's normal. If a piece is heavily damaged, contact us within 7 days of delivery for a replacement.
Under a covered porch, yes — direct rain and full sun will damage it quickly. Indoors lasts much longer.
Most ristras use chile pequin or similar small, brightly-colored dried chiles. Wreaths often use larger Hatch-style pods. Variety is noted in the product description.
Mildly — a soft, smoky-chile aroma when fresh. The scent fades over a few months indoors. Some people love it; if you're sensitive to smells, hang in a ventilated area.
Yes — these are a signature New Mexico gift, especially during the holidays. They ship well, look striking, and carry a piece of Hatch Valley tradition.
