chinense Tried the Brutlah DM, I mean bhutlah

Monday night I went to my local watering hole for wings and cold beer. We typically try one of every pepper I grow and I had only 2 peppers to try since I usually don't get a lot of peppers till early September. I brought a cumari and the bhutlah DM. The cumari was easy on all 3 of us with a hab like burn that only lasted a few minutes. The bhutlah was pretty small but turned nice and brown so I picked it and brought it with me. I cut it into 3 pieces and took a gulp of my beer before I was ready.I didn't feel the burn till 30 seconds later and it came with a vengeance. This started on the side of the mouth that I chewed and spread throughout the whole mouth. I have eaten 70 plus varieties including the reaper. This was the most brutal burn I have ever encountered and felt like I had eaten red hot coals from the grill. The burn continued for 20 plus minutes and gave my ears a ringing which has never happened before. This pepper was by far the hottest I have ever eaten and the longest continual burn with a gut bomb also. My one buddy was struggling so bad he left the bar for milk and pepto bismol and when he came back he said he's done for the summer after that. The owner said hopefully the rest won't be as bad as that one. lol
 
        Long summer ahead and and 20 more types to try.
 
That was pretty much my same experience with the Chocolate Bhutlahs that I grew last year.  The only thing hotter was a variety that I grew out of an F1 hybrid, and the taste had ZERO redeeming quality for the heat, so I threw it away.  LOL
 
Yes the Bhutlahs are sneaky peppers. Just when you think "oh that's not bad" they hit and hit hard. 
 
Your review sounds like one of the earlier versions of 7pot Bubblegum that I had tried. This one pod on the plant did not have the typical large calyx or red bleeding into calyx and stem. It really looked more like SR 7pot. It was a real coal burner. That was the first pepper that really took me down.
 
Then there was that little Clavo Red Pepper that I grew from seeds that Nigel had sent me, while far from the hottest peppers I have ever eaten, it stung like a hundred hornets in my mouth and seemed to last an eternity. I’m still not sure if it was actually a true Clavo Red or Nigel was just messing with me. I tend to think the latter.
 
 
 
They look beautiful, but I have had enough pain with Red Bhuts, and will just hold there for now.  I don't aspire to be surgically attached to a shop vac anytime soon.
 
All I know is that my PL Bhutlah powder knocks the socks off of any Reaper powder I've tried, with a nice, earthy, almost cocoa-y flavour to boot.
I like the pepper, whether it's "real" or not.

Care to explain further?

I grew SM and DM last year SM was a pussy cat compared to the DM. I included CS this year for a total of 3.

I mean by the comment "The only real bhutlah are SM and CS"
 
any stabile cross of a douglah and bhut jolokia are true bhutlahs, including DM
