Bhut Jolokia Solid Gold - (Capsicum chinense)

The Solid Gold Bhut Jolokia is a unique variant of the classic Ghost pepper, maturing from green to a mustard-gold hue. Known for its characteristic wrinkled, folded skin, the Solid Gold Bhut offers an intense, lasting heat similar to traditional Bhut Jolokia but with an earthy, slightly bitter flavor without perfume notes. The burn starts on the tongue and gradually spreads, creating a mellow yet potent heat experience. Though it may take longer to mature, this pepper is highly productive, yielding large, super-hot pods that are perfect for sauces or fresh toppings for heat enthusiasts.

Heat level:  Estimated 800,000 to 1,000,000 SHU – Extreme Heat.

Flavor:  Smoky, Earthy & Floral.
