Scorpion

Extreme • Fiery • Fruity

Among the World’s Hottest Chilies

The Scorpion pepper is one of the hottest chilies in the world, rivaling the Carolina Reaper in intensity. With a pungency that ranges well into the millions on the Scoville scale, it delivers searing heat balanced by subtle fruity notes.

Native to Trinidad and widely grown in hot climates, the Scorpion pepper has become a benchmark chili for extreme-heat sauces and seasonings. Despite its fire, its fruity undertones make it appealing for careful use in specialty applications.
