I got these today. They where simply labelled 'Red Scorpion'.
 



 
Trinidad Scorpions??

 

[JoynersHotPeppers]

Nice pods and I'd say yes....

 

[Jeff H]

I agree. Yes.

 

[scotchnaga85]

Excellent

I shall now be saving the seeds for next years crop :-)

I wasn't quite sure because the pictures I've seen of TS seem to have nobbly/ pimply pods.

All I need to do now is get a hold of some of those 7 pod ones

 

[Dulac]

Yeah, those look like TS reds.

 

[ajijoe]

yup

 

[scotchnaga85]

What kind of TS do you guys think it could be? I'm only aware of the Maruga and the Butch T.

I tried a pod after slicing it to remove some seeds.

The inside was dripping with waxy oil - always a good sign

Heat was at least Dorset Naga heat but the intense burn lasted longer then a Dorset Naga. However it wasn't as painful on my tonsils/ ears as a naga.

The intense burn lasted around 7 minutes, naga more like 5 minutes. Interestingly though 6 hours later i still had a slight warm sensation on my lips.

Either a classic TS or a TSBT. I can't tell the difference but I have read that the TSBT is smaller. Definitely not a moruga. Those look completely different.

Well the biggest pod is about 1.5 inch in length and 1 inch across. About the size of a large habanero.

Are the Maruga the pimply pods?

Moruga.

 

[scotchnaga85]

Definitely more rough/ pimply looking, with a less pronounced stinger. Thanks jeff

I have Moruga's and a hybrid moruga hopefully on the way soon but in the mean time I got some more pods from the same  supply as the last lot. These are a little different as in they are not as smooth skinned as the first lot but not as rough/ pimply as those pictures pf the Moruga's.
 


 
Butch T maybe?
