Bhut Jolokia Black x Orion SP

The Fiery Fusion of Bhut Jolokia Black x Orion SP

The Bhut Jolokia Black x Orion SP hybrid brings together two of the world’s most extreme pepper varieties to create an intensely hot, flavorful chili that commands attention. With an extraordinary heat level of 1,000,000 SHU, this hybrid is not for the faint of heart but perfect for thrill-seeking spice lovers. The combination of the renowned Bhut Jolokia Black and Orion SP results in a pepper that delivers both searing heat and complex flavor profiles.

Orion SP, bred by Italy's Mr. Rocco Maltesi, is a stunning 3-way cross between Fatalii Gourmet Jigsaw, Big Red Mama, and Yaki Blue Fawn. This pepper ripens from dark purple to a translucent, light brown "waxed glass" appearance, eventually turning purplish-red upon full maturity. Its rich, fruity flavor provides a contrast to the heat, making it a versatile ingredient for gourmet hot sauces.

The Bhut Jolokia Black adds to this fiery creation with its intense, almost ghostly heat, originating from the cross of the Red Bhut Jolokia (Ghost Pepper) and Pimenta De Neyde. Known for its high Scoville ratings, the Bhut Jolokia Black elevates the heat level and imparts a slightly smoky, earthy flavor.
