Gateway T3 heat. Fruity esters give complexity beyond simple heat.
The fruity esters and moderate capsaicin that define Aleppo pepper are sensitive to storage. Grocery Aleppo (where available) is often older stock. Impact adjusted from 3 to 2 — heat remains but the fruity complexity that separates Aleppo from standard chili flakes may be muted. Oily texture is a sign of freshness.
