The Hot Pepper Company - Carolina Reaper Dried Pods - Hottest Chillies in the World (10 x pods)

Atomic powder

These are quality chillies. I’ve bought several packs for the last five or six years or so. It’s pure common sense, but unless you want to sacrifice a whole day to being locked in the bathroom, use sparingly in dishes. I Usually cut about no more than a third of the chilli, include the seeds and add to pasta sauce. That’s more than enough! There seems to be a quality to these dried pods, as you definitely get a rush of heat, but it has a pleasant after-feeling, if that makes sense, unlike some nasty bottled chilli sauces that linger… Well worth the money. Just use with common sense! 🌶️

Very hot 😬, couldn't last 5 seconds of chewing 😅

Hot as hell! Presentation wasn't the best though. I think my postman has a secret hatred towards me as the chillies arrived like he'd put them through a processor and then stamped on them a few times 😱 i'd still reccomend them to anyone who thinks taste buds are over rated or has a severe hatred to someone they prepare food for 👍🏻

Incredibly spicy. DO NOT accidentally burn in a pan, I felt like an American protestor for a solid 45 minutes.

First off, the title is not a detriment, it is a complement. These things are the real deal, no messin' no fussin' big boys of the pepper world; the head honchos, the big cheeses. Having cooked with reapers once previously and (apparently) not correctly, I decided to put a few extra in my curry to actually get heat. This was my first mistake. Don't do this, these things will do your mouth what Godzilla would do to a Mini Cooper. They also made my kitchen so spicy I probably should have gotten a phone call from the UN about a breach of the Geneva Convention - despite an extractor fan and horizontal open windows. The only way I can describe the flavour is that it tasted like the fires of Mordor, and it certainly melted the one ring if you catch my drift. If you want heat, you will get heat - and since you are looking at reviews for Carolina Reapers I feel like you definitely want heat (or are laughing at all of us who bought them!) so I'd definitely say the product is what it says it is no questions there. Bottom line is, these are great value for money. Knowing that these pack the advertised punch, the 100g I bought will last me a long time. I would thoroughly recommend these if you don't mind using your digestive system to send gastric napalm straight to the Ninja Turtles ten to fifteen hours after consumption.

It's exactly as advertised. You will hate every second of it. I thought I couldn't hate existing any worse (come back Sandra) but I was wrong... I thought I'd be fine as long as I washed my hands several times. The fumes from my chili con carne were nearly enough to call poison control. 8 is too many. I only held the end of the chili while I chopped them but my hands still had enough that I regretted things later. I went to scratch an area that every bloke knows is itchy 100% of the time and then time stopped. I must have screamed at such a high pitch that dogs nationwide begged for mercy because it was silent to me. I had to crawl on my hands and knees to the shower and put it on power blast on the lowest temperature for a solid half hour. It was not enough. I will never be the same...

It is very hot in comparison with the Habaneros I am accustomed to. Great find! I use it, and any other hot chillis I can find, to make Mexican "salsa macha" which is made by frying powered or macerated dried pods gently until they darken in toasted sesame seed oil. Grinding the pods is quite a production as the dust makes me cough and my eyes water. I use this salsa spread thinly on my ryvita and Philly cheese spread - to give it a bit of oomph.
