The “Carolina Reaper” has been rated as the world’s hottest chilli pepper by Guinness World Records since August 7, 2013.
The famous Carolina Reaper averages at 1,569,300 on the Scoville Scale with peak levels of over 2,200,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU). The original crossbreed was between a Bhut Jolokia (Ghost Pepper), a former world record holder, and a Red Habanero chilli pepper.
This is it. The big one. The BIG DADDY of the chilli pepper family. The Carolina Reaper blows away the Moruga Scorpion’s measly 2 million SHU by over 200,000 SHU’s. It’s one evil-looking chilli pepper having the texture and scorpion tail of it’s Trinidadian Relatives. There is a bit of confusion around the Reaper’s origins but the world record is held by ‘Smokin Ed’s Carolina Reaper’ which has been patented by Ed Currie, owner of PuckerButt Pepper Co. You’d be wise to fear the Reaper.

Jay’s Peach Ghost Scorpion
C. Chinense
900,000 SHUJay’s Peach Ghost Scorpion is a winner if you are chasing incredible heat. The cross of a Ghost Chilli and a Trinidad Scorpion by Jay Weaver presents us with this gnarly peach coloured Chilli! It is now about 7 generations old so getting very stable. A bit milder in flavour than the Ghost is nice and the slightly floral and sweet flavour is very good. At about 900,000 SHU, it’s running with the big boys and not to be taken lightly. Jay’s Peach Ghost Scorpion is on most hardcore chilli growers list for a good reason!

Moruga Scorpion Yellow
C. Chinense
Approx 800,000 – 1,000,000 SHUIf you love the Trinidad Moruga Red then we think you will love the yellow variety even more. From what we have been told it’s a natural occurring variant of the Moruga Red being slightly sweeter with a definite citrusy tang to it(if you can taste this past the heat that is). Of the all the superhots the flavour of this one is a standout. Pod size is respectable but a tad smaller than the red variety. A special one for the serious chilli head – so what are you waiting for :-).

Devils Brain Red
C. Chinense
Approx. 1,000,000 – 1,200.000 SHU
Another devilishly hot one. The Devils brain is a hybrid creation of the Brain Strain from Judy over at Pepperlover.com. We grew a few plants of this one and the pods colour and shape were very consistent. Meant to be up there with the Carolina Reaper heat level wise although it has a slow burn build up – so watch yourself with this sneaky one. Why it’s called the Devil’s Brain we can’t say but we love the name all the same.

Scarlett Variegated
C. Annuum
Approx 5,000-10,000 SHUThe Scarlett chilli is a cross between a Purple Tiger and a Jalapeno that was originally bred by Graeme Chaplin in Western Australia. We have grown it out many times and it appears to be mostly stable. It’s truely maginificent to behold as it grows and the pods start their transformations. The green and white variegated foliage has splashes of Scarlett throughout and the pods start dark purple and transition through a range of stripey colours of violet, yellow, orange and red. This version has upward growing pods 3-4cm x 2cms in size. The Scarlett Chilli plant grows short and compact and is super easy growing. The taste is sweet and reminiscent of the Jalapeno flavour.

Orange Blob
C. Chinense
20,000 – 30,000 SHUOrange Blob…Seriously!! Although well known among serious Chilli lovers, it’s still an enigma! The Orange Blob is said to have descended from some Habanero types and the taste supports that. While it may have a name that only its mother could love and a shape which reminds you of that guy at the Gym you feel sorry for, It’s actually very good to eat! While not quite as hot as other habanero, it is a little sweeter! Go for it…don’t hold back ..Seriously….

Machu Pichu
C. Chinense
10,000-15,000 SHUIt would come as no surprise the Machu Pichu Chilli comes from Peru, the home of many of our best chillies. This unusual and rare plant is robust and can produce huge crops of large, dark brown fruit. The taste is rich and Smokey and makes an excellent powder! It is also great used fresh. A must have if you like something different!

7 Pot Bubblegum Yellow
C.Chinense
500,000-650,000 SHUThis little beauty is definitely one for those who are collectors of rare and unique chillies. The Yellow variety is a naturally occurring variant of the 7 pot Bubblegum Red(a cross between a Trinidad Scorpion Moruga and a Trinidad 7 Pod Yellow) that we obtained from a friend. It is seemingly less hot than the red variety and the pods are about half the size at 3-4cms long and 2-3cms wide. It has the bleeding calyx that we all love and is quite prolific as chilli plants go. Taste wise it has the typical chinense flavour with a citrisy sweetness that bursts through.

Orange Torpedo Rocoto
C. Pubescens
Approx. 50,000 SHUOur very first Rocoto variety, the Orange Torpedo is one we have obtained from the PATCH ON THE BELLARINE. We love the colour, we love the shape and most importantly we love the flavour. A chilli much prized in its native Mexico City for use primarily in salsas, it has an amazing sweet apple-like flavour. The Pubescens species is quite different from other chilli species. It has hairy foliage and contains more Dihydrocapsaicin than capsaicin resulting in a different deeper and longer burn. Go on give it a go.
