The RB003 pepper is an Australian-bred, super-hot hybrid of the Carolina Reaper and 7 Pot Brainstrain, known for its brutally intense heat that is described as exceeding the Reaper, along with a fruity flavor profile. Visually, it features a bumpy, twisted texture, a long tail similar to a scorpion pepper, and ripens from green to dark red. This experimental pepper is a favorite among chili collectors and heat enthusiasts, used in hot sauces or fresh for a fiery culinary experience.
