In honor of [mention]DMF[/mention]'s call for the 'What's Your Favorite Pepper?' question to be qualified by heat levels, I thought I would ask a more specific question:

What's your favorite medium-sized (not medium-large, unless it's cone-shaped) sweet pepper?

If you haven't decided on one favorite, you can say all your tied favorites.

I like Neapolitan most, of those I've grown, probably.

I can't eat peppers unless they're really thoroughly cooked, and even then only in small amounts, so they have to be really special to get my attention. (mostly I grow them for others to enjoy and just freeze whatever doesn't get eaten quickly)

Chocolate tastes like it's roasted no matter how I cook it. My SO said it had roasted pepper flavor already even raw, very rich. I made a stew with them last year and the whole thing got that lovely roasted pepper flavor, yum.

Doe Hill is new for us this year and definitely a keeper! It's medium-small, extremely thick walled and wow fruity sweet flavorful. I'd actually be excited to have a stash of this one in the freezer. :)

I like Lipstick as a medium-sized red pepper.

I grew Doe Hill the other year and it was incredibly productive! I wish I'd grown some this year!
