| - The bhut jolokia, also known as ghost pepper, ghost chili, Naga jolokia, and naga ghost chili, is a chili pepper cultivated in Bangladesh and Indian states of Assam, Nagaland and Manipur. It is an hybrid of the C. chinense and C. frutescens genes. In 2007, Guinness World Records certified that the ghost pepper was the world's hottest chili pepper, as it is 900.5 times hotter than Tabasco sauce and 5 times hotter than many habaneros. The ghost chilli is rated at more than 1 million Scoville heat units (SHUs). Classic Tabasco sauce ranges from 2,500 to 5,000 SHUs. However, as of 2012, it was superseded by the Trinidad Moruga Scorpion. On December 26, 2013, the Guinness World Records rated the Carolina Reaper as the world's hottest pepper, moving the ghost chili to third place.
