Trinidad moruga scorpion (chilli pepper) : Trinidad moruga scorpion pepper (Botanical name: capsicum chinenselisten)) originates from the Moruga region of Trinidad and Tobago. On February 13, 2012, the New Mexico State University's Chile Pepper Institute identified the Trinidad Moruga Scorpion of Trinity as the hottest pepper in the world, with an average heat of over 1,2 million units on it.Scoville scale (SHUS), some unique plants of which can reach a strength of over 2 million SHUS. The previous record holder was Indian Chilli Bhut Jolokia.
Paul Bosland, a chili expert and director of the Pepper Chili Institute, commented, “You take a very small bite. It doesn't seem so bad, then it stings harder and harder, eventually burning the whole mouth."
Aside from its ultra-scorching strength, the Trinidad moruga scorpion has a fragrant fruit flavor, making it a sweet yet strong combination.
This pepper can be grown from seed in most parts of the world. In North America, the growing season for this pepper varies from region to region depending on the end of the spring frost until the first fall frost, as frost kills the plant. But like most peppers, Trinidad moruga scorpion is a perennial plant that can grow all year round in greenhouses, with a slowdown in winter.
On August 7, 2013, Guinness World Records rated the Carolina Reaper pepper as the hottest pepper in the world, dethroning the Trinidad Moruga scorpion pepper, which in 2016 still held the world record with 2.200000 SHUS.
