The Black Panther is a cross between the Pimenta Da Neyde Pepper and the infamous Ghost Pepper. It comes from Brazil and has an average Scoville Unit rating of 1,100,000. When we tasted the raw pepper, it was killer. The final product turned out to be on the low end of hot.
 
Each pepper is only about 1.5 inches long and weighs very little so it really makes a limited production. Where a single Reaper or Datil will give us 1,000-1,500 peppers, three Black Panther plants gave us about 300 peppers. The plants are very slow to germinate from seed and took about 2 months to germinate inside.
 
It produced a wonderful aroma when cooking in the kitchen. Because of the low yield and rarity, this pepper was bottled in 3-ounce bottles.
 
Made with peppers, fruit and spices, this hot sauce has a wonderful flavor profile and is not your typical vinegar-based sauce. 
 
Ingredients

The peppers for each sauce are fermented for up to 3 weeks to bring out the peak flavor of the pepper and mellow them just slightly.
