Carolina Reaper Chilli Seeds. Is the official World's hottest chilli pepper according to Guinness Book of Records. It ranks un-matched on the Scoville Heat Scale (SHU) tipping in at an AVERAGE 1,569,300 SHU and a top heat over 2,200,000 SHU. For those who are not familiar with SHU - that is between 300 - 400 times hotter than a Jalapeño. The previous World Record holder - the Trinidad Scorpion ButchT had a top SHU of 1,463,700. Besides the heat, which is as hot as it gets... it has a wicked look. It's lumpy, it's bumpy... it has a tail and just looks mean never mind being dangerously hot! Flavour-wise, these chillies are fruity, sweet with hints of cinamon and undertones of chocolate... beautiful, mind-blowingly hot and tasty... a must for all chilliheads in my books! They are good growers, but like heat during the seedling stage. This plants will grow to about 1,5m in height and yield loads of the world's hottest chillies. Really a very very very little goes a loooong way!
THIS IS OUR MOST SERIOUS WARNING! THIS IS NOT A JOKE - THIS CHILLI IS IN OUR EXPERIENCE LETHALLY HOT AND MUST BE TREATED WITH ABSOLUTE CAUTION AND RESPECT!
