The "Beast" pepper is hybrid of the Carolina Reaper and Chocolate Nagabrain peppers, created by Brian Seal in the USA. It is known for its gnarly, bumpy, red fruits and extremely high heat, with a Scoville rating of 1 to 1.5 million SHU. The Beast pepper has a complex, fruity, and citrus-like flavor, but its intense heat makes it best suited for sauces and cooking rather than eating raw.
