Pepper - Chile - Scotch Bonnet The Pepper Hot Scotch Bonnet, 'Capsicum chinense', is 10 to 20 ties hotter than a Jalapeno. Once you get over the initial blistering heat, the intense citrus-like flavor will win you over. Scotch Bonnet is a type of Habanero, considered the hottest pepper in the world. Words such as hellish, blistering, and incendiary are used to describe the heat. Scotch Bonnet will produce a crop in climates not quite hot enough for Habanero. They are great in salsa. Note: To get a jump on the season transplant outside, use a walls-of-water or some black plastic to maintain and increase temperatures. Wash your hands immediately.
