Extremely high heat level 

Carolina is currently the hottest pepper in the world. It is 400 times hotter than the famous Jalapeño pepper and more than twice as hot as the Bhut Jolokia pepper. 

There is no pepper that will rock you like the Carolina Reaper can. But you'll know when your eyes and nose are running, your mouth is paralyzed, you're hiccupping and you feel like you've stepped into hell. It's so hot and spicy that you should wear protective gloves to manipulate it! But you'll be rewarded with a wonderfully fruity-sweet taste. 

The interesting fact about this pepper is that its hotness is not caused by the seeds but by the white flesh that surrounds them.
