Product Description
n the Scoville Heat Scale, the Carolina Reaper pepper has an regular Scoville Heat Unit (SHU) rating of one,500,000 with some personal peppers topping out at an incredible two,200,000 SHU. The pepper is a crossbreed among a Ghost pepper and a Red Habanero pepper. As such, it has a sweet somewhat smoky flavor. The heat hits you immediately as a rush of endorphins envelop your physique. Your skin starts to sweat and the extreme pain in your mouth is unbearable. Fortunately this pain subsides in about ten minutes. All the while, you will experience a sense of euphoria that is akin to operating a marathon as your body tries to chemically compensate for the ache. Like all peppers, that contain capsaicin, the feeling of pain is felt due to the fact of the pain receptors that mammals have. Birds and insects lack these particular receptors and therefore do not expertise the pain. Whilst capsaicin does trigger skin to burn up and blister, peppers themselves are not dangerous if effectively ingested.
