Magic Plant Chocolate Ghost Chili Pepper Puree
A Rare, Dark Legend—Brutal Heat with a Nuanced, Smoky Complexity.
Overview
Our natural Chocolate Ghost Chili packs a powerful heat at 800,000 to 1,041,427 (SHUs). These peppers have the classic ghost "slow burn"—the heat doesn't hit instantly but erupts into an intense surge after about 30 seconds. So those few seconds prior to that—this respected pepper actually has a really nice complex smoky and earthy flavor! Our Chocolate Ghost fermented puree is diabolically hot (spicy) so use with common sense and caution. Remember, the heat builds and lingers for a prolonged time, so start with a very small taste test to gauge your heat tolerance.
The Chocolate Ghost (Bhut Jolokia Chocolate) is a rare natural variant of the traditional red ghost pepper, resulting in its deeper color and more pungent scent. Intense Heat and Endorphin Rush. Before processing, Chocolate Ghost peppers have a distinctive appearance with a gnarled, blistering skin and a mahogany-brown color. They are often characterized by their pendant-like shape and pockmarked texture, giving them a "sinister" appearance that warns of the fire within.

The Experience
Ghost Peppers were the first to officially break the 1 million SHU barrier! 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' chocolate ghosts. Use our premium quality chili pepper products once and you’ll be hooked forever! This puree is perfect in small doses for a specific aromatic kick in stews, BBQ sauces, and rustic Indian or Mexican dishes. 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 fermented puree with our milder peppers like our Low Heat Dried Peppers (Chipotle Morita) or our sweet dried peppers (Red Poblano Mulato Pepper, Trinidad Pimento, or Sweety Drop Peppers). This will still give you the rich smoky flavor of the Chocolate Ghost without the overwhelming heat.
