7 Pod Brain Strain Yellow is one of the hottest peppers in the world, easily recognized by its wrinkled, brain-like appearance. This variety was developed in 2007 on the exotic island of Trinidad, part of the state of Trinidad and Tobago, and its fruits ripen from dark green to a vibrant yellow.
The pepper’s heat reaches extreme levels, making it a favorite among chili enthusiasts who appreciate its complex flavor profile. In addition to its intense spiciness, it offers a pleasant fruity taste with a hint of pineapple, making it exceptional in sauces, marinades, or as a seasoning for dishes that call for a bold, spicy kick. The pepper is ideal for drying and grinding into a powder, which makes an excellent spice, but even fresh, it adds a unique flavor to your meals. It is recommended to grow this variety in warmer climates or greenhouses to achieve optimal yields.
