Hot Scotch Bonnet Pepper Powder
Experience the legendary fire of the Caribbean's most iconic pepper! Our Hot Scotch Bonnet Pepper Powder delivers a scotchie heat with a distinctive fruity, tropical flavor that sets it apart from ordinary hot peppers. This is the secret ingredient that makes Caribbean cuisine unforgettable.
Why Scotch Bonnet Peppers Are Special:
Scotch Bonnet peppers are 100-350 times hotter than jalapeños, ranking 100,000-350,000 on the Scoville scale. But unlike generic hot peppers, they bring a sweet, fruity undertone with hints of tomato and apple that complements the heat - this is what makes authentic jerk seasoning, pepper sauces, and Caribbean stews taste so incredible.
