I wish I could eat these, but it's fun to read about them. I wonder where it fits on the Scoville scale.
According to one source the Carolina reaper is the hottest hybrid pepper on the planet, beating the Moruga Scorpion by 200,000 units at 2,200,000 SHU.

Very interesting story, I also would like some seeds

My chocolate ghost pepper is only 1,000.000. But it has smoky undertones and flavor. One ghost pepper or so , 3 tomatoes, 1 clove of garlic, 1 onion and table spoon of apple sider vinegar put in blender put in jar and keep in fridge for 7 days and you will never buy Jared salsa again

I'm guessing the pepper seeds will be on the market shortly but you'll be paying Ponte Tresa prices in the short term.  

I currently have (or will have) extra seeds of the following if anyone is interested.
