The De Cirereta variety, which translates as "little cherry", belongs to the species Capsicum annuum L. This is an autochthonous crop closely associated with the agricultural traditions of the Balearic Islands.
The fruits of this pepper are the main raw material for the production of the local hot spice "pebre bord coent", and are also used whole for flavoring sauces and fish and meat dishes. The quality of the final product directly depends on the degree of ripeness of the fruits, which determines the level of carotenoid and capsaicin content.
The plant is traditionally grown in vegetable gardens and is classified as a conservation variety. The exact morphological parameters of the bush, maturity timing, and disease resistance are not described in available sources.
