The Naga Bhut Jolokia, widely known as the Ghost Pepper, is an Indian legend that made history by surpassing 1,000,000 SHU. This powder version provides a nuclear heat level with a persistent and slow-building burn that is characteristic of the species.
With a rating of approximately 1,014,000 Scoville Units (SHU), its effect is explosive. The capsaicin triggers a powerful endorphin release, creating a unique sensation of well-being following the intense heat. It is a "slow burner" that lingers on the palate.
Despite its extreme fire, it possesses a distinctive smoky and earthy flavor. This concentrated powder is ideal for extreme curries, industrial-strength hot sauces, and seasoning meats. Use with extreme caution: a very small amount is sufficient for an entire meal.
Naga Bhut Jolokia powder, 10g pack. Pure nuclear intensity from the legendary Ghost Pepper.
