  Bhut Jolokia Chocolate Chilli Seeds
Chocolate Naga Jolokia Chocolate Ghost Chili Seeds  The Chocolate Bhut Jolokia Chilli is a very rare Heirloom Pepper. This is such a potent chilli that one seed can cause intense pain! Extreme care should be taken with the pepper, especially to avoid the eyes, as it can cause severe burns. The official Scoville heat rating is 1,041,427 SHU. In autumn of 2006, the Guinness Book of Records confirmed that New Mexico State University Regent’s Professor Paul Bosland had indeed discovered the world’s hottest chili pepper, Bhut Jolokia. Bhut Jolokia, at 1,001,304 Scoville Heat Units (SHU), is nearly twice as hot as Red Savina, the chilli pepper variety it replaces as the world’s hottest. A New Mexico green chile contains about 1,500 SHUs and an average jalapeno measures at about 10,000 SHUs.  “The name Bhut Jolokia translates as ‘ghost chili,’” Bosland said, "it’s because the chili is so hot, you give up the ghost when you eat it!”
According to Bosland, Bhut Jolokia is a naturally occurring inter-specific hybrid indigenous to the Assam region of northeastern India. A member of NMSU’s Chile Pepper Institute visiting India sent Bhut Jolokia seeds back to NMSU for testing in 2001. Bosland then grew Bhut Jolokia, Red Savina, and habanero peppers under controlled settings. Bhut Jolokia exhibited significantly higher SHUs, as much as triple the amount and these findings were confirmed by two independent laboratories. Bosland reported that the variety has compelling potential in the packaged food industry as a food additive. The pepper could be pickled while still green, dehydrated and used as a seasoning. Because the heat is so concentrated, less would be needed and food manufacturers would save money. Caution: The fruits of this chili variety are extremely hot. It is advised to wear gloves when handling the peppers or seeds,   keep them away from children, and thoroughly clean all kitchen utensils like cutting boards, knives etc. When grinding dried Jolokias, wear a breathing mask, protect your eyes. Don't touch any sensitive parts before cleaning your hands thoroughly first. And use these peppers sparingly - it is always easier to kick up the heat of a dish than toning it down.
