Developed by Steve Bender, the Ghost Breath pepper is a superhot variety that is the perfect fusion of two extreme heat champions: the Ghost Pepper (Bhut Jolokia) and Dragon’s Breath. With its intense heat and complex flavor profile, Ghost Breath delivers a burn that rivals some of the hottest peppers in the world. The peppers look somewhat similar to Ghost peppers, but deliver a more intense heat level.
The pepper brings an explosive combination of heat and fruity, slightly sweet undertones and it is estimated to exceed 1.5 million Scoville Heat Units (SHU). The Ghost Breath pepper delivers an immediate punch that builds and lingers. Each bite of the deep red, wrinkled pods offers a complex flavor profile that lingers well after the fire has burned.
Perfect for hot sauce makers, spicy salsa creators, or anyone looking to test their heat tolerance, the Ghost Breath pepper packs an extreme level of heat.
