(Capsicum chinense) 10 seeds per pack. As of 2015 this is the official hottest pepper in the world, measuring over 1.5 million SHU with some pods up to 2.2 million (this is up to 10 times the heat of a habanero!) Pods are most like the Trinidad Scorpion, with telltale wrinkling and often (but not always) a long tail. The blistering heat goes a long way in hot sauces. Please note that his pepper is extremely hot and could present a health risk to anyone that is sensitive to peppers or has certain types of allergies. Do not ingest without dilution. Both ripe fruits and seeds should be handled with care and protection. #3700
