The Habanero (Capsicum Chinese) is the hottest Chile pepper in the world, measuring between 200,000 and 300,000 Scoville Units (the hottest jalapeno measures only 5000 S. U. ) Pepper connoisseurs the world over consider it to be the finest variety known to man. Using only the highest quality ingredients, Melindas blends fresh carrots, onions, garlic and a hint of lime juice with the Habanero. The result is a pepper sauce that harmonizes heat and flavor without the overpowering pungency found in traditional vinegar-based hot sauces. Melindas vegetable base allows you to spice your food without drowning out the original flavor. Country of Origin: USA Weight (lbs): 0.67
