Is this the Bhut Jolokia, world's Hottest Pepper (also known as Naga Jolokia, Ghost Chili, Ghost Pepper, Naga Morich), a chili pepper that grows in Bangladesh, northeastern India (Assam, Nagaland, and Manipur), and Sri Lanka? I have a plant growing in my garden that I over wintered from last season and it still hasn't produced a single chile pepper. I do grow the formerly hottest chile Red Savina, a habanaro of extreme heat. In February 2007, Guinness World Records certified the Bhut Jolokia (Prof. Bosland's preferred name for the pepper) as the world's hottest chili pepper. The effect of climate on the Scoville rating of Bhut Jolokia peppers is dramatic. A 2005 Indian study that compared the percentage availability of capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin in Bhut Jolokia peppers grown in both Tezpur (Assam) and Gwalior (Madhya Pradesh) showed that the heat of the pepper is decreased by over 50% in Gwalior's more arid climate (similar temperatures but less humid, much lower rainfall).
