Perfect for Heat Lovers Who Want Serious Spice
This Wicked Reaper Carolina Reaper Chili Powder is absolutely intense. The heat level is no jokeโjust a tiny pinch is enough to significantly spice up any dish. If you enjoy extreme heat, this definitely delivers.The powder is finely ground and mixes well into food like chili, soups, sauces, and marinades. The flavor comes through behind the heat, but the real focus here is the intensity, which is exactly what youโd expect from Carolina Reaper peppers.Because itโs so strong, the 2 oz container will last a long time since you only need a very small amount per use. Itโs definitely not for casual spice eaters, but for heat enthusiasts, itโs perfect.Overall, this is a high-quality ultra-hot chili powder that lives up to its reputation. Great for anyone who wants to seriously turn up the heat in their cooking.

Muuuuy picante
Estoy acostumbrado a el picante, sin embargo, a la mala aprendi a tenerle mucho respeto a este. Debes medir muy bien cuanto le echas a la comida. No es sabroso, porque difรญcilmente se percibe sabor. Debido a su grado de picor y que no se percibe sabor, me ha parecido una excelente opciรณn para comida a la que no quiero cambiarle su sabor o hacer mas picosas las salsas.

Have your guests sign a waiver
Halfway through my second bottle since 2019. As a guy who goes through the largest bottle of Tabasco I can buy at Walmart in approximately 5 weeks, that's a testament to the heat this powder represents.Think of it as the culinary spice version of fentanyl. A ridiculously small amount of this powder will produce an event in your mouth that does not seem reasonable for the amount of tiny particles of dust your eyes will perceive.I have produced something of a tolerance for the heat in this powder, and because of that I do tend to use a little more of it, well a lot more of it, than I used to.It's wonderfully hot, adaptable to all kinds of foods, has a bit of a sweet Carolina reaper pepper flavor. From my perspective used in small quantities it has no negative impact on just about anything I've tried it with. I have never been able to determine much of a smell because to even attempt to smell this product is not something I would recommend anybody ever attempt, under any circumstances, ever. Its impact on your ocular and olfactory senses as well as the outer layer of your skin speaking in dermatological terms, should also be taken very, very serious. It's hot enough to make a friend become an enemy should you not provide sufficient warning and treat it with the care it so richly deserves.I'm sure there are hotter powders out there, but not many. And I'm also assuming there's not very many with over 3,000 active reviews like this product.My fear is that at some point we're going to have to sign a waiver to purchase it, as it is unlike anything like you're going to buy at the average grocery store - I'm willing to promise you that.Do not under any circumstances assume this is going to be similar to anything else you've ever used if you have no experience with niche Carolina reaper powders - of which there seems to be more and more. I've had few experiences now where I feel like maybe I should have people sign a waiver of responsibility before I allow them to test it. I normally have to be the one to offer to sprinkle what seems like an absurdly small amount of these tiny orangish or red particles on somebody's food -before I allow them to touch the bottle and do their own application. I've experienced people accidentally sniffing it as it's being poured by somebody else a foot away, I've experienced people accidentally getting this underneath their eyes, on their forehead, under their nose and on their cheeks and other parts of their body. It's not a good idea to use it on a sandwich where it can get onto your fingers where you might wipe your mouth or nose or any other exposed part of your body. I've experienced all of the above multiple times and have become accustomed to the process of waiting for the burn to subside. In or around the eyes is by far the most annoying and painful FYI.I discovered this back in mid-2019 while having pizza with a group of landscape workers. I asked them if they had any kind of hot sauce and one of them went and pulled out Reaper from his personal kit, and I watched his co-workers all getting ready to laugh uproariously at my demise. Now, in that instance I did use too much thankfully, because the whole point was to watch me suffer. When I ended up expressing fascination and joy at discovering this powder they were disappointed. I purchased it that very day on Amazon and have never looked back. This has a place high in my kitchen cupboards where no children can get to it but it is on my table at least four times a week.A truly versatile and awesome addition to pretty much anything you would enjoy with salt if you're a spice lover. I can't think of very many things I haven't tasted with this, and I typically add it just to give myself the heat I seek even with meals that are already hot.

I Like It A Lot
This is legit extreme hot pepper. Is it Reaper? Who knows, but it very well could be. I've had it a few weeks, and it will definitely boost the heat of whatever you're cooking. I make my own hot sauces and my peppers weren't quite hot enough from the garden this year. A 1/8 teaspoon of this mixed in when I open a new jar of sauce, and it gives the sauce just the right amount of kick. I'm going to buy new seeds for next year, but this Reaper powder saved the sauce that I put up (around 20 pints). It's a great value considering what it takes to make a jar of Reaper powder. Warning, the heat level is no joke, you have to respect it, or it'll get you.Update: Five years later and I still haven't finished my first bottle. It takes so little to turn whatever spicy food you're eating to scorching hot. I will admit that I don't use it every day, but still, it has lasted a long time and still tastes great. This is a high quality product and well worth it.

A Great Way to Make Things Very Spicy Without Ruining the Taste
As I've eaten spicier and spicier foods, I've encountered an increasing problem with the hot sauces I was using to make them spicy also making them far too bitter or vinegary. Reaper powder is a quantum leap forward for me. I can now make things incredibly spicy without ruining their flavor.However, while I've always just wanted to make my food hotter without altering the flavor profile, I will say that the burn of reaper powder does seem a bit flat to me. It seems to hit the center of my tongue a bit less and just generally have a less rounded taste. Even alone, it's still better than the alternatives, but I have taken to adding some Melinda's Ghost Pepper Hot Sauce (which I find too mild and vinegary to be of much use on its own) to my food as well, to give the spiciness body.I've only tried one other brand of reaper powder, which was roughly on par with this one in terms of the actual powder, but the sprinkle applicator is better on this one. With the other product, I was often intermittently sneezing and coughing for a minute or two after using it. Maybe the holes were too small or something, and the powder was getting aerosolized, but even though I usually couldn't even smell it, it was obviously irritating my nose and causing that annoying reaction. You still want to be a bit careful using this bottle, tapping rather than shaking the powder out, but I don't usually have any problems sneezing or coughing at all.Overall? This stuff is fantastic. Highly recommend.
