The Trinidad Moruga Scorpion is native to the district of Moruga in Trinidad and Tobago. On February 13, 2012, New Mexico State University's Chile Pepper Institute identified the Trinidad Moruga Scorpion as the hottest chili in the world, with a mean heat of more than 1.2 million Scoville Heat Units (SHUs) and individual plants with a heat of more than 2 million SHUs.   The previous record holder was the Bhut Jolokia “ghost pepper” of India. The current world record holder is the North Carolina Reaper.

This is the hottest pepper I have ever tasted... not sure if I will dare ever go any hotter!!!
