Carolina Reaper Chilli

Carolina Reaper is currently the World Record Holder of the Hottest Chilli

Reapers have been rated at over 2m SHU - this is seriously hot!

Jalapeno on pizzas are 5000 SHU, Cayenne in Madras Curries is 20,000 SHU, Scotch Bonnets are 100,000 SHU so at 2m SHU the Reapers are pure molten lava

Great flavour and aroma, if you can handle smelling it for long

Use in any dish for any occasion for the hottest of times!

The pods are whole and include the seeds, however due to the drying process the seeds are sterilised and it is very doubtful a seed will germinate
