Magic Plant Acidified Trinidad Scorpion Pepper Mash
The Legendary Scorpion Sting—Intense Heat with a Floral, Fruity Finish.
Overview
Our natural Trinidad Scorpion packs a powerful heat at 1,200,000 to 2,000,000 (SHUs). The Scorpion is known for its sharp, aggressive burn that hits faster than the "creeper" varieties. So those few seconds prior to that—this respected pepper actually has a really nice complex floral and fruity flavor! Our Trinidad Scorpion ground pepper, crushed flakes, dry whole pods, and acidified mash are insanely hot (spicy) so use with common sense and caution. Remember, the heat hits quickly and lingers, so start with a very small taste test to gauge your heat tolerance.
The Trinidad Scorpion Moruga was previously the world's hottest pepper, resulting in its extreme heat level reputation. Intense Heat and Endorphin Rush. Before processing, Trinidad Scorpion peppers have a distinctive appearance with a wrinkled, gnarled texture and a bright red color. They are often characterized by their namesake pointed stinger at the base, giving them a "scorpion" or dangerous appearance.

The Experience
Trinidad Scorpions are known to be among the world's hottest peppers! So why eat it? Like most chili peppers, in certain amounts the sensation can be quite pleasing and causes the release of endorphins in the brain, which make you feel pleasure. Studies suggest that Capsaicin may have certain health benefits, such as pain relief, improved digestion, and potential metabolism-boosting effects. Eat with caution but enjoy the complex flavor provided by Magic Plant Farms' scorpions. Use our premium quality chili pepper products once and you’ll be hooked forever! This pepper is perfect in small doses for a specific aromatic kick in stews, sauces, soups, and salsas. For the brave of heart, just add more directly on top!
Too Hot?
Dilute the heat: If you're not used to eating such hot peppers, you can dilute the heat by mixing our acidified mash with our milder peppers like our Low Heat Dried Peppers (Chipotle Morita) or our sweet dried peppers (Green Ancho Peppers, Red Cascabel Pepper, Red Poblano Mulato Pepper, Trinidad Pimento (Trini Pemiento), Peppadew Peppers / Sweety Drop Peppers). This will still give you the floral sweet flavor of the Trinidad Scorpion without the overwhelming heat.
