Ghost Pepper Seeds (Bhut Jolokia): Culinary Fire
$4.99
Enter the legend. The Ghost Pepper, or Bhut Jolokia, is the iconic superhot that first shattered the 1 million Scoville barrier and introduced the world to a new level of heat. For years it reigned as the Guinness World Record holder, and its fearsome reputation is a rite of passage for any serious chilihead.
The Ghost Pepper is famous for its unique “creeper” heat—a slow, menacing burn that builds in intensity for minutes, long after the first bite. But before the volcanic heat consumes your palate, you’ll notice a surprisingly sweet and fruity flavor with hints of smokiness. The pods themselves are menacingly beautiful, growing 2-3 inches long with a wrinkled, thin skin that ripens to a vibrant, warning-sign red. Growing the Ghost Pepper is a challenge and a reward, earning you ultimate bragging rights in your garden.
