How hot is the Roatan pumpkin habanero?
Its floor is that of a common orange habanero, a very spicy 100,000 Scoville heat units (SHU). But unlike those common habs that tap out at a 350,000 SHU ceiling, the Roatan pumpkin habanero can reach up to 500,000 SHU. Thats not quite Red Savina habanero level (which has a 577,000 SHU ceiling), but still plenty hot to be considered a super-hot in its hottest iteration.

On average, though, the pumpkin habanero averages out into extra hot status (approximately 300,000 350,000 SHU), so we place it among the top heat performers in the extra-hot pepper category. In terms of our jalapeño reference point, the pumpkin habanero will be anywhere from 12 to 200 times hotter than a jalapeño pepper.
