Hot pepper "Trinidad Moruga Scorpion Red" - extremely hot!
SHU 1 200 000 - 1 460 000.
One of the hottest peppers in the world!
On July 4, 2011, the world's hottest pepper - "Trinidad Scorpion Butch T" - 1.46 million Scoville units (1,460,000 SHU) was included in the Guinness Book of Records.
It was obtained by crossing varieties and named after Butch Taylor from the USA, who sent seeds for exchange with his colleagues in Australia. Australian lovers of hot peppers not only grew them, but also took the risk of conducting heat tests, as a result of which they received this record result!
If you still decide to take a bite of this pepper, then in the first minutes you will think that it is not spicy at all. However, after just a few minutes, the degree of burning sensation will begin to rapidly increase, and there will be a feeling that the tongue, throat and esophagus are on fire: blood pressure rises, the face turns red, and the eyes begin to water heavily...
In addition to such a “terrible” pungency, this pepper is notable for its fruity aroma, thanks to which its fruits, added to food in very small quantities, give the dish a piquant and pleasant taste.
Spicy on the Scoville scale is 1,200,000 - 1,460,000 SHU (i.e., to completely neutralize the hotness effect of 1 gram of this “pepper” you will need 1200-1460 liters of a water-alcohol mixture).

Hot pepper.
