Yellow Scorpion Butch T - 15 seeds

Origin & Breeding
The Yellow Scorpion Butch T is a color variant of the original Trinidad Scorpion Butch T, a pepper that once held the Guinness World Record for the world’s hottest chili. This yellow version was selectively bred to enhance its citrus-forward flavor and golden hue, while preserving the signature sting and heat that made the original famous. It produces smoother, slightly wrinkled pods with a tropical twist.
