Ghost

Fiery • Fruity • Intense Heat

One of the World’s Hottest Chiles

Ghost pepper, also known as Bhut Jolokia, creates an intensely fiery paste or purée recognized for its extreme, lingering heat—one of the hottest available in the world. Ideal for high-impact formulations, Ghost pepper paste delivers concentrated pungency that appeals to adventurous consumers and bold product developers.

Despite its searing intensity, Ghost pepper paste offers nuanced fruity undertones that add surprising depth when balanced thoughtfully in sauces, condiments, spicy bases, and even sweet-heat applications.
