Chocolate primotaili is the number one hottest pepper. Regular primotaili is number two. Pepper x is hot and top ten for sure maybe even top five. But any real chilli head knows its not the hottest. Thats why Ed wont allow anyone to review his pepper x.

The chocolate primotalii Might not be recognised as the hottest pepper in the world by Guinness world records. But according to the Chilli heads It is the hottest pepper they ever tasted It’s way hotter than the reaper They don’t know about Pepper x Though They never tasted it So they don’t know But I think the chocolate primotalii We’ll give pepper x A run for its money The question is which ones hotter

I think Habaneros are the threshold pepper for a lot of people. You can either handle the heat of one and therefore can go on to hotter peppers or you can’t tolerate the sting at all then habs are where you stop.
