So I got into work this morning and a lad I work with gave me a piece of chocolate to try and I didn't know until I had eaten it, that it had Carolina reaper chilli in it.
Has anyone tried the chilli?
I'm now interested in trying it, as the chocolate wasn't as hot as I thought it would be.
Still kicks like a mule for 20 minutes though. |

"Who sits down with chocolate and WANTS hot chilli in it ?
No one."
I didn't know it was in it, when I tried some.
But if you cook a chilli con carne it's great adding a small amount of chocolate to finish off the flavour. |

True,
But some places do chillies dipped in chocolate. |

Chilli in chocolate is great, as is a little chocolate in your chilli con carne. Rounds out the flavour nicely.
I made some Carolina reaper infused vodka last year that met with mixed reviews. Those that like a bit of spice thought it was great, those with a milder palate... did not enjoy it  |

Easy enough to make, but where the sweet or fruit infused vodkas take days or weeks to infuse, the Carolina reaper is done in about an hour. Any more than that and you've got yourself a bottle of heartburn juice! |

Haha, I can imagine. Vodka can taste spicy at the best of times. |

I’ve grown Trinidad scorpion chillis this year. Second only to Carolina reapers in heat. Waaaaay too hot to eat by them selves but sliced wafer thing and infused into milk it makes an amazing chilli hot chocolate.
Ate a tiny piece of chilli - felt like my entire head was on fire. Tongue was actually hurting. Made the mistake of rubbing my eyes - fuck me that was painful. |

I think there is a strain some English guy bred to be hotter than the reaper. So it's actually in second place on the scoville. And I believe scorpion is after ghost? I'm not certain.  |
