pepper x









































pepper x is a cultivar of "capsicum" chili pepper bred by ed currie, creator of the carolina reaper. pepper x resulted from multiple cross breedings which produced an exceptionally high content of capsaicin in the locules of the pepper. the exceptional heat of the chili was developed over 10 years of cultivation.









































currie stated that it is "two times as hot as the carolina reaper" which would make it the hottest pepper in the world with a scoville scale of 3.18 million units, but this remained unconfirmed by the "guinness world records" as of 2019.

scoville scale









































the scoville scale is a measurement of the pungency (spiciness or "heat") of chili peppers and other spicy foods, as recorded in scoville heat units (shu) based on the concentration of capsaicinoids, among which capsaicin is the predominant component. the scale is named after its creator, american pharmacist wilbur scoville, whose 1912 method is known as the scoville organoleptic test. the scoville organoleptic test is the most practical method for estimating shu and is a subjective assessment derived from the capsaicinoid sensitivity by people experienced with eating hot chilis.
