Carolina Reaper, world’s hottest chili, has a sweet and fruity flavour. Use in very small doses and with extreme care.
Carolina Reaper was certified as the world’s hottest chili pepper by the Guinness World Records on August 11, 2017, with an average of 1,641,183 Scoville Heat Units (SHU) for the tested batch (hottest individual pepper was measured at 2.2 million SHU).
Ed Currie of the PuckerButt Pepper Company created the Carolina Reaper (named it so for the sickle-like tails that stick out the ends), crossbreeding ghost pepper and red habanero. He began crossbreeding peppers after reading scientific papers suggesting that their chemical compounds might reduce the risk of heart attacks and cancer, two diseases that run in his family.
Flavour has been described as sweet, fruity, with a hint of cinnamon with chocolate undertones. When the fruity flavor passes, you’ll start to feel the intense burn

Carolina Reaper is so spicy that special precautions must be taken in its handling. Wear gloves, to keep significant chili burn at bay, But if you are sensitive to capsaicin (the compound that makes chillies hot), then we recommend wearing protective goggles and even a face mask when handling Carolina Reaper.
