Nick Molina

This is one of my go to places when I am in Albuquerque I always try to stop at this place. I love the variety of dry goods they have to offer and I absolutely love the red chilie pods! I think they are the best! I recently got a bag of hot and it’s hot and firey red. The taste was a delicious, just the way I like it. You must visit to appreciate this little hidden gem. It’s absolutely one of my favorite sports to get fresh produce and authentic chili.

Monica Herrera

My husband and I got 2 sacks of green chile for the season. They get their chile from Hatch, and the chile was perfectly roasted, easy to peel, and very meaty. Great value for the price, too! We love this place for the dry and fresh produce, also. They’re always very consistent and friendly, and one of the few places in town that sells quality powdered chile at a reasonable price, too!

This little local store is filled with nothing but local flavor!. If you love NM cuisine look no further. Lets start with the holy trinity of NM foods , fresh Red chile, green chile and beans. I won't buy anywhere else! They bring in and stock the best of the local farms. They also have a tons of fresh and local seasoning and rubs. This stuff is the real deal and it's what locals like me buy. Then you can shop their nuts and dried fruits! I just bought some red and green chile cornnuts, chile lime pistachios and green chile peanut brittle to spice up some christmas gift baskets! Yum!
