FREE: Organic Bhut Jolokia---Ghost Pepper 5 seeds

The listing, Organic Bhut Jolokia---Ghost Pepper 5 seeds has ended.

Bhut, from the Bhutias people, means “ghost”. Given name because heat sneaks up on the one who eats it. Has been around for centuries, but introduced to western world in 2000. In 2007 certified as the hottest Chili Pepper on the planet in The Guinness Book of World Records. Ripe peppers measure 2.5 to 3.3 inches long with a red, yellow, orange, white, purple or chocolate color. TASTE (AND HEAT): The first flavor you will notice is an intense sweet chili flavor, the heat does not kick in for 30 – 45 seconds. Once the heat kicks in, expect sweating, watery eyes, hiccups and shortness of breath. The burning generally intensifies over 10 – 15 minutes and subsides after 30 – 40 minutes.

TIP: Don’t touch any of the super hots with bare hands. Use latex or nitril gloves when handling hot peppers or seeds. I have found that with simple plastic food prep gloves, the pepper oil still gets through.
