OK, apparently I need to know more about this Chile!....
Here's the Wikipedia. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Mexico_chile
Doesn't really capture the culture of the chile though. Not only is it everywhere, but it's like a part of life. Especially in the fall when the little roasters are set up in every grocery store parking lot in town, the smell and sound of the roasting chile is just everywhere.

I live in Nob Hill and we get our chili from the same place.
Unfortunately I have IBS and an ulcer that doesn't like hot food, so I am very careful when I need a chili fix.
@Glassman the locals eat this three times a day, and put it in damn near everything.
I am still a noob here but will be happy to send or trade NM chili bombs for cigars. ;)

Ahhhhh! Ok, Yeah, two varieties of those are some of my favorite peppers to grow! :D NM "Big Jim" and something "Bull", I'm drawing a blank on it right now.

When I first moved there I couldn't stand red, but now I think I like red more than green. I get my red from here http://www.potrerotradingpost.com/RedChile.html Their sun-dried chimayo is excellent, as is the hotter Sandia and Lumbre.
