The listing, carolina reaper 20 seeds has ended.

The Carolina Reaper Pepper story started for Pepper Joe in January, 2012. AKA HP22B

Bob Nunnencamp, Ed Currie's top executive came to the Charlotte Home and Garden show. Ed later stated that the only company that he's bought pepper seeds from was Pepper Joe's.


They wanted to line up a meeting and ask us to be the exclusive distributor for his Carolina Reaper seeds. We met at a restaurant in Barefoot Landing in Myrtle Beach on February 16th, 2012.

Ed explained that he saw us as the top Hot Pepper Seed company in the world and wanted us to help him market his invention, the Carolina Reaper. We did our due diligence and visited his greenhouses, farms, irrigation system, etc. We even went to the Winthrop University to validate the testing procedures for the Carolina Reaper with Doctor Cliff Calloway.

The rest is history LOL.

A press release came out on August 27th, 2012 to introduce the Carolina Reaper to the World. Then FINALLY on November 14th, 2013 Guinness declared the Carolina Reaper the Hottest Pepper in the World. Yeah!

This new Carolina Reaper is an absolutley amazing pepper. It has a sweet chocolate-cherry under tone with a hint of citrus. It's as tasty as it is hot. HOT? The Guinness Book Of World Records has documented the heat level at 1,569,000 Scoville Heat Units. And according to our Facebook page of over 60,000 fans/customers they're having a blast growing the Carolina Reaper.

Our customers have grown out approximatly 50,000 Carolina Reaper plants with most of the pods showing incredible results. Our customers are reporting that as the plant matures and the summer gets hotter, the pods become more Reaper-ish and gnarly looking.

It wasn't exactly smooth sailing at the beginning. The Chilehead community accused Ed of releasing the Carolina Reaper before it was a stable variety.
