There's still a touch of green on the pod, so I'm gonna let it sit for a little bit before cutting it open.

So how does it taste and also the heat. What would you compare it too ?
The flavor is great! Very fruity! It reminds me of a Black Naga but not as pungent. I would compare the flavor to Judy's Bhutlah (close to the same genetics) but the heat was nowhere near what I thought it was gonna be. It has a great solid mouth burn. No stinging, no throat burn, no gut bomb (all positives for me). I was able to eat an entire half of that pod without any hiccups, but tears were streaming and saliva flowing. The heat lasted only about 5 minutes, then tapered off quickly. I was afraid this was going to be way too hot to be able to use it in anything, but I was wrong. I can see using this in many ways. I like it!
