The Devil’s Tongue is similar in color and shape to the Fatalii, but with smoother skin and smaller size. It matures to a bright yellow or yellow-orange and has a sweet, fruity flavor, if you can get past the intense heat. It appears to be in the habanero family, but it was “discovered” in Pennsylvania growing amongst other habaneros, so its exact origins are unknown. The heat level rivals that of the habanero and is still much hotter than most peppers.
The Devil's Tongue Red is a rare and extremely hot pepper. The Devil's Tongue has a good yield. The wrinkled pods are about 5 to 7 cm long and have a diameter of 2.5 to 4 cm. The plant is about 100 cm tall.
