Also known as Ghost Chile. The Guinness Book of World Records hottest pepper in the world from 2007 through 2010, measuring over one million units on the Scoville scale! More than a novelty, these orange-red peppers which grow up to 3-1/2" long at maturity, can be used to spice up cuisine but should be eaten with extreme caution and kept away from eyes.
