Aji Limon / Lemon Drop Opinions Discussion

After reading all the great reviews I decided to grow this variety. They look beautiful but the flavor profile is kind of basic…obviously, taste is subjective. I am curious to see what others think? Are these overhyped? Maybe my growing conditions are a factor in the muted flavor.

I expected way too much from these and couldn't really detect any citrus aroma from them so I dehydrated some lemon zest and mango along with the peppers and mixed it all together, came out great. It's a great plant to grow even in a small pot as they are very productive.
