This is my favorite Douglah Cross so far. I have tried 1 brown and 3 reds including this one so far this season. This one is very similar to the others but it had a few things that set it apart. First, I love the shape. Second, the texture is thicker and a bit more velvety like a scorpion, the others are more plastic like a 7 pot. You can see in the picture they look more smooth and shiny like a scorpion. I think I tolerate the Scorpion capsinoids better than the 7's. Having said that, It did not seem quite as hot as the brown cross or Hot Poopers Butch T x Douglah but the burn was unique and more like a scorpion. It made me light headed and attacked my mouth more than my throat. Tongue was numb and I had that feeling like I burned it with hot soup the whole next day. I could still taste fine but it was muted. Like I said they are all very similar, I would be happy with any of them. As far as I know they are all unstable so next season any of them could produce something different that is better than this one. But given the choice, I would probably start with this one. Thanks SS this was a great surprise!
