A Tale of Two Nagas - comparison review

Here`s another review. This one is a comparison between 2 different Nagas. One is thought to be true to type, one maybe not. 
 
After eating these I had some issues with stomach cramps, but I did eat 5 Tepin x lemon drop, 1 Moruga red, 2 not white Bhuts, a yellow 7 pot and these 2 Nagas in about 90 minutes. Ah well, live and learn.

so..... did you feel that cloud of diesel fumes around your head every time you exhaled? lol. Nagas are ROUGH!
 
Yeah, Nagas do a real number on me. More pain than anything, as I don`t find them all that hot. Really bloody painful, though. 
 
Brother Nigel, You are such a great reviewer! You always seem to give a very accurate description of what's going on during the review, much better than I can!
Exceptional reviews my friend! Looking forward to more :fireball: :fireball:
 
Nagas are one of my favorites with heat and taste - I love them in powder form to put on virtually EVERYTHING I eat. 
 
Nagas taste great to me. Brilliant in Salsa. I make a sauce for Tamales out of Nagas, onion, garlic and yellow tomatoes that is awesome, IMHO.

So do the Nagas not have a very good flavor? I have some but have not tried them yet.

I love the flavor and heat! These have to be one of my favorites!

And to Nigel! All that in 20 minutes? Your nuts dude! Tell ya what dude... I got some 16,000,000 shu extract and I'll send you some if you want to try for a crazy buzz. I took a drop and it floored me! It is so hot i was drueling egg white textured saliva. But in the end i did get that cap buzz on! I'll send ya some if your feeling ballsy.

I`m not ballsy, just dumb and stupid. You should know that by now      ;)
 
I`ll eat anything regarded as food twice.............just to be sure. The thing I hate by far the most? Balut and then eggs of all denominations. 
I could not get the Balut down. Just couldn`t do it.

I`ve had everything on this list. The only one I couldn`t eat was the Balut. The Lutefisk was really, really nasty, too.

If I would manage to survive this, all the rest of the day I would dread what was coming tomorrow morning!
 
What do you guys mean when you say something like not white Bhut?  Does it appear to be a White Bhut but not off a pure plant so maybe it's actually a cross?
 
I got the peppers from Jamie (Romy6) and he has a nice way of naming things. It goes like this - you buy or trade for some seeds for a White Bhut, germinate, grow and the pods end up being totally NOT White Bhuts, so they become known as Not White Bhuts.
 
Here`s a photo of Jamie`s Not White Bhuts. I can also tell you that they don`t taste of Bhuts AT ALL, but are the sweetest chili I`ve ever eaten with a dilute Hababero/Scorpion flavor. Probably 75,000-100,000 SHU, also.

I really loathe eggs anyway, but Balut is just way beyond my capabilities.
