The Red Naga Brain pepper is a cross between the 7 Pot Brain Strain and the Dorset Naga. The peppers are round, have bumpy skin, and a fruity flavor like other 7 Pot pepper strains. Some of the pods are more elongated like the Dorset Naga, while others are smaller and more round like a 7 Pot variety. Naga Brain pepper plants are high yielding plants that grow to be about three to four feet tall. They are considered superhot peppers because of their extreme heat level. The pods start off green and ripen to red. Although they have not officially been tested, Naga Brain peppers are believed to be as hot as 7 Pot peppers, which average about 1,000,000 Scoville Heat Units.
7 Pot peppers are close relatives of the Naga Brain pepper. There are several different colored strains of 7 Pot peppers, including the Red 7 Pot, Yellow 7 Pot, White 7 Pot, Chocolate 7 Pot, 7 Pot Douglah, and 7 Pot Primo. The 7 Pot pepper is related to the Trinidad Scorpion pepper, one of the hottest peppers in the world.
