I usually post in my review thread or GLog, but this freakin thing deserved its own thread!
The Bottom line: Amazing flavor, enough heat to satisfy even the biggest heat seekers. I have found my new favorite pepper. A great choice if you are human.
On Heat. The BOC took a good two to two and a half minutes to build. It immediately hit my tongue, really uncomfortably under it at first before spreading to the top and then the throat. It had a nice coal throat burn, then started attacking the lips a bit. I had some tingling on my fingers, but no real paralysis. The burn lasted about 5 minutes at its greatest, but even now, 30 minutes later, my mouth still has a few hot spots.
On Taste. Amazingly fruity, bordering on unique. I totally enjoyed this pepper, it had a few hints of floralness, but before that could really come out, it was all fruit. Even as I was recovering and cooling down, it still tasted amazing.
On Vigor and Production. Everything I have seen has shown that these are great producers and the pods are huge and blocky. It is definitely orange, which is cool. Not a lot of orange pods are actually orange, and instead just overripe yellow pods.
Heat: T2
Flavor: T1
Production: T2
This pepper would in just about any pepper application you can think of. Sauce, powder, fresh, sautéed, or pickled. All of them would be awesome. This would also fit nicely for those who want to jump into sweet sauces.
