Butch has recently been dethroned by a new champ. The Trinidad Scorpion "Butch T" will rest easy knowing his crown is now held by another Scorpion. The Moruga Scorpion, to be exact. Ah, such a proud pain inducing family. The new variety boasts a 1.2 million SHU rating, with some plants reported around 2 million! This new pepper is bound to take over the industry as the worlds absolute hottest pepper. The Butch T., has now lost it's novelty, and if I'm in the market for the hottest sauces, the second hottest just doesn't fit that category anymore. Don't get me wrong, The Butch T. will always have it's place. However I expect that old best sellers as far as hot sauces go, will be replaced be newer ones that can list the Moruga in it's ingredients. Be among the first few to try the new strain. The Trinidad Moruga Scorpion will be growing in my back yard soon enough:)
