Trinidad Scorpion Moruga Chili Powder

For the spicy-flash! Extremely spicy. Only for Chili-Heads.

In 2012 the Trinidad Scorpion Moruga held the title of the world`s spiciest chili. It is cultivated in Trinidad and Tobago, an island nation off the coast of Venezuela. The measurements of the Chile Pepper Institute of New Mexico State University gave average values of 1.207.764 Scoville Units with top values of up to 2 SHU, the first time that a chili plant had reached values of over the 2 million mark.

The chili powder of the Trinidad Scorpion Moruga is extremely spicy, but also has a very fruity taste with a flowery note. The spiciness begins slowly, but then becomes extremely fiery and remains for quite a long time.

The Trinidad Moruga Scorpion chili powder is suitable for spicing up all dishes, in particular curries, stews, dishes with tomatoes or paprika sauce, and all exotic dishes. It is also suitable for marinating white meat or fish.

Production Info

We have our Trinidad Scorpion Moruga chilies cultivated by a contract farmer, so we have influence on the whole production process, in particular the quality. The freshly harvested chilies are gently dried and then ground. In this way, the flavours are almost completely retained. In India in particular, chilies are often dried too hot. The new Trinidad Scorpion Moruga Chili Powder is setting new standards in terms of taste and spiciness.
