Bhut Jolokia Red Half Chillies

The Bhut Jolokia Red is one of the hottest chillies in the world - it was the first that had passed the 1-Million-Scoville-mark and held the world record from 2007 to 2011. It originates from the region of Assam in India and has been cultivated and used there for many years. The names bih jolokia, bhut jolokia, ghost chili or naga jolokia all refer to the same variety of chili.

The half chillies have a delicious fruity flavour, sometimes with a slight citrus note, and tastes great in any chili lover`s favourite dish. They go particularly well with the Indian cuisine, but is also suitable for Mexican and African dishes.

Caution: Extremely hot!

About the production process

Our bhut jolokia chillies are cultivated by a contract farmer so that we can retain influence over the production process and the quality standards in particular. The freshly harvest chili peppers are carefully dried. In this way, virtually none of the flavours are lost. In India in particular, chili peppers are often dried at too hot a temperature. Our new coarsely ground bhut jolokia chili sets new standards when it comes to flavour and heat.
