Description

Another great Fatalii variety, this chocolate one seems to be the hottest of all other colors. This extreme heat made is a great choice for making powder rather than using fresh like the rest of the Fatalii family.  One of the few Capsicum chinense species with origins in Africa.  Very productive plant setting dark green pods, turning chocolate in an early season, the pods have Smokey-earthy floral smell.  The Fatalii pepper carries about the same heat as a habanero, but provides more of a citrus favor under all that heat.

Heat level:  325,000 (SHU) Scoville Heat Units – Very Hot

Flavor:  Hot but very fruity with smoky tones
