Can I buy African Bird's Eye (piri pri) chili peppers locally?

I am not interested in Jamaican scotch bonnets, Trinidad Scorpians, or Mexican arbol. I just want to buy African Bird's Eye (piri pri) chili peppers. Does anyone know if I can find some locally?

I have no idea. I have been looking for Shishito peppers with no luck around here as well. That's after going to H Mart and Great wall. I don't know if Korean and Chinese supermarkets aren't likely to carry Japanese peppers or if it's just too niche.

A few months ago in China, mobs were lynching Japanese businesses over an island, so I wouldn't get my hopes up.

Lotte in Chantilly sells piri piri hot sauce and ghost pepper powder, but other than that, I can't help you.

Buy the seeds and grow your own. Can be grown in a pot indoors. I'm growing a bunch of peppers for fun.
