Created by crossing the Red 7 Pot Bubblegum and Chocolate Ghost, the Chocolate Bubblegum Bhut Jolokia pepper is a very rare pepper that is considered a superhot. It is extremely unique because of the bleeding of orange color that moves from the pepper through the stem. Unlike most Bubblegum varieties, this particular variety produces pods that have the look of a Ghost (Bhut Jolokia) pepper. Similar to other Bubblegum peppers, the Chocolate Bubblegum Bhut Jolokia’s flavor is fruity and sweet, but slightly smoky. Once the pod has matured into a deep brown, the stem turns brown. The appearance of the Chocolate Bubblegum Bhut Jolokia pepper is similar to the Chocolate Naga Viper, but it has a brown calyx and stem. It's closely related to the Orange Bubblegum Bhut Jolokia and Red Bubblegum Bhut Jolokia.
The Chocolate Bubblegum Bhut Jolokia pepper’s heat is somewhat similar to that of the Ghost pepper as it averages about 800,000 to 1,100,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU). Although the Chocolate Bubblegum Bhut Jolokia is considered a superhot pepper, it still ranks behind the Carolina Reaper pepper.
