Carolina Reaper Red Chili Flakes

For all those who say it can never be spicy enough. EXTREMELY SPICY! Only for really hardcore Chili Heads.

The Carolina Reaper chilli is one of the fieriest of the hot chillies!!!! It held the world record from 2013 - 2023. The variety was bred by chilli breeder Ed Currie of the PuckerButt Pepper Company in South Carolina (USA). The average values tested by the Chile Pepper Institute were 1,569,300 Scoville units, with individual specimens reaching a staggering 2.2 million SHU. The name "Reaper" is said to be reminiscent of the deadly Grim Reaper.

The taste of the Carolina Reaper flakes is - in addition to being extremely spicy - very flavourful and fruity-sweet, with notes of chocolate-cherry and a hint of citrus.
It goes particularly well with dark meat, whether it`s beef or game, but also goes well with tomato dishes or paprika sauce. Please do not underestimate the spiciness, people who are unused to spicy chillies should not attempt to try it.

Production Info

We have our Carolina Reaper chillies cultivated by a contract farmer, so we have influence on the whole production process, in particular the quality. The freshly harvested chillies are gently dried and then ground. In this way, the flavours are almost completely retained.
