The Red Painsicle is where it all started. This is the original Painsicle, our Hurtberry x Ghost Pepper cross that launched an entire line of peppers named after the one thing they all have in common: pain. Real, relentless, won't-let-you-forget-it pain.
The heat ramps up fast and leaves a sinister burn lingering long after you think it's over. Gnarly, wrinkled pods with an attitude that matches the heat. Plants are productive and the peppers look as mean as they taste.
