€4.20

Naga Jolokia chillies – also known as Bhut Jolokia or Ghost Pepper – were the first chili peppers in the world to exceed 1,000,000 Scoville Heat Units. This chili powder is no joke and made for seasoned lovers of extreme heat.

Despite its intense spiciness, the Naga Jolokia chili has a surprisingly fruity flavor profile with notes of green apple and apricot. This makes it a versatile ingredient: perfect in curries, chicken dishes, sauces, and marinades, but also a bold twist in pickled vegetables or even chocolate desserts.

This legendary chili is the genetic ancestor of the infamous Carolina Reaper, underlining its status as a true icon in the world of extreme spice. Just a pinch is enough to turn any dish into a fiery experience that lingers long after the first bite.
