Hi Everyone
Could it really be that the Dorset Naga is the hottest pepper in the world!
The reason I say this is based on a weekend of testings/tasting with a fellow hooked hot head!
On arrival self & fellow hot head went out into the garden to do some serious selective pod picking, I named all the varietys as we picked them, by rank and file you know, this one is F*%$in hot mate "Hottest in the world", "Hey! the Poms reckon this one is hot!","This ones from Trinidad","This ones from central Africa" You know the full one minute education on the whos who of hot peppers....
Well.... we did our tastings, method being Jatz and sour cream with sliced fresh pods. Bentalphanerd put me onto eating and tasting pods like this. It works very well allowing you to taste the pods flavour and experience the heat of the pod on a more manageable level .
To cut it short I lined them all up in I what I determined to be mild to wild. At the very end was Butchs T Scorpion my Naga was second followed by the 7pots Douglahs Fataliis and so on. Half way along the line we got to the Dorset, taste was very nice alot like the Bhut Jols but WOW! this pod kicked so hard and hurt so bad my teeth were aching... fellow hot head wanted to call it quits right there! I talked him through it, we had another beer and I finally coaxed him into further tastings down the line, we did them all and got a good idea of what each was capable of. On completion I went back to another Dorset Pod saying that I was completely surprised at the intensity of them! Yet again! the Dorset hammered my senses...
Hot head called today calling me all the so an sos on the earth had a giggle and reckons hes keen to pipe up again.
Anyone else have similar experiences with the Dorsets?
Mine grow like a mini Bangladesh Naga with lots of thorns poking out evil looking critters they are, source was from my mate Micca.
