About
Pods are wrinkled and elongated, starting light green and finishing deep burgundy or reddish-brown, about 6–9 cm long with medium walls. Flavor is fruity and floral with a smoky note beneath the superhot heat. Plants reach 90–120 cm and prefer full sun and warm conditions; start seed indoors and give the mature plants support.
Backstory
A grower known as Madhatter developed this variety in the United States around 2013. It combines traits of the Yellow 7 Pot and Chocolate Ghost lines and has circulated as open-pollinated seed since then.
