CHILLIESontheWEB Quick Growing Guide to Fatalii Gourmet Jigsaw chilli plant
Created by legendary chilli grower Fatalii, the Gourmet Jigsaw is one of the fiercest superhots in the world. This vicious variety can push past 1.5 million Scoville Heat Units (SHU), delivering a slow-building, deep-burning heat that creeps up and doesn’t let go.
Its name says it all — this chilli tears you apart piece by piece, starting with a bold fruity flavour followed by a devastating punch. The pods are large, heavily wrinkled, and ripen to a vibrant red, making them ideal for eye-catching sauces, fiery powders, or fermenting into something truly wicked.
Fatalii Gourmet Jigsaw isn’t just about brutality — it’s also a great grower. Plants are strong and productive, thriving in warm climates or greenhouse setups. This is a chilli for hardcore growers and flavour fanatics who want both beauty and beast in one pod.
