Chili Pepper News — habaňero

It may not be the hottest pepper in the world anymore, but you certainly don’t want to underestimate the habanero! This very hot pepper still packs quite a punch. Ranked the world’s hottest pepper by Guinness in the late 1990s, the habanero has been surpassed by a number of super-hot peppers over the years. Even so, it’s at least 70 times hotter than the average jalapeno, with some measuring even hotter than that.

An organic, rare and hard to find chili pepper that is hotter than hell The Devil’s Tongue is a devilishly hot pepper that is quite mysterious in origin. No one quite knows where it came from, but I believe it is from the Habanero family and could come from the Caribbean.
