Scoville heat units are a measurement of sugar and water. There is no confirmation that these peppers are hotter than the Carolina Reaper, but this just means we’ll have to wait for more official announcements! List of Peppers from Mildest to Hottest as Measured on the Scoville Heat Scale While the Carolina Reaper is currently known as the hottest pepper in the world, there are some serious competition with rumors of even hotter peppers such as the Dragon’s Breath and Pepper X. Growers are producing the hottest hybrids every year with hopes of pushing the Scoville Scale. Even we have to double check hot pepper ratings because we are adding new seeds to our store every year, or a new hot pepper is added to the top 10 hottest peppers of the year. With over 50,000 pepper varieties in the world and new varieties being created every year, it can be overwhelming to keep up with the heat levels of peppers.

So where are we now? There are only two authorized sellers of Carolina Reaper Seeds: Pepper Joe's and Puckerbutts. That will be the LAST time another company packages our seeds for us. We're here for ya Bro Ed.īut in our 25 year history we've ALWAYS packaged our seeds in house and did it ourselves. Puckerbutt's is still a small emerging company and is learning from their mistakes. I just want my customers to be happy.and MY name is on the purchase.not PuckerButts. So my customers got MORE Carolina Reaper seeds than they expected. I replaced those seeds with an entirely NEW pack of seeds at my expense. I've received maybe a few hundred complaints that seeds were light in quantity. However, when I took possession of Ed's packaged didn't go so well. Him and Bob Nunnemcamp vowed that they would. But when I counted the seeds that Ed's people packed.the quantity ranged from 7 to 16 seeds per pack. I want to give my customers more than they expect. I clearly told Ed that I wanted 12 Carolina Reaper seeds in every envelope. Then we had customers complaining that their seed count was light. Ed had his reasons for that and that is between him and the Chilehead community. Smokin' Ed didn't answer back on the Blogs. Pepper Joe stepped in and was a staunch supporter of Ed's.and we took most of that heat in the early days. I can't speak directly to that as I've never seen Ed's testing records. The Chilehead community accused Ed of releasing the Carolina Reaper before it was a stable variety. It wasn't exactly smooth sailing at the beginning. Our customers are reporting that as the plant matures and the summer gets hotter, the pods become more Reaper-ish and gnarly looking.
