Moruga Scorpion

Description

The Moruga Scorpion, the first pepper ever to break 2 million SHU, held the world record for spiciness for several years (in fact, it was only ousted from its sizzling throne about six months ago) and hails from, you guessed it, Trinidad. Each fruit is about the size of a golf ball and contains as much capsaicin as 25 milliliters of police-grade pepper spray. This is the spiciest naturally occurring pepper known to man, but, like the Douglah, it’s also famously fruity and flavorful. Fans recommend adding a small amount to any dish for an explosion of flavor, as well as the endorphin rush that accompanies the consumption of something that spicy.
