Hi Cool…er..hot Dave! Ha!
I know the ’Red Savina’ Habanero is among the hottest peppers in the world. However, I have been hearing that the newer and rarer habanero-’Chocolate Habanero’ is even hotter than the ’Red Savina’. Please let me know. Also, I have heard about one more newer habanero called the ’White Bullet Habanero’ or simply ’White Habanero’ that may be hotter that the ’Red Savina’. Let me know. If so, is the ’White Bullet’ hotter than the ’Chocolate Habanero’ or is it vice versa? Sorry, but you now have 3 questions to answer- ha! Thanks for taking the time to read this, and now all you have to do is respond!
Thanks again,
Steven

Steven:
HPLC tests at New Mexico State University rated the ’Chocolate Brown Habanero’ considerably hotter than the ’Red Savina’–see here. To my knowledge, no one has tested this ’White Bullet’ variety, but we’ll be glad to have it tested if you can provide us samples.
