Carrot Ghost: A fiery treat from the USA

Unique aroma meets extreme spiciness

The Carrot Ghost Chili is a true delicacy for spice lovers. With its impressive spiciness of around 80,000 Scoville units and a spiciness level of 8, it offers an explosive taste experience. Their unique, fruity, smoky aroma makes them a sought-after ingredient for preparing hot sauces, marinades and spice mixtures. The elongated, carrot-like fruits, which ripen from a vibrant green to a deep orange, are not only a highlight in terms of taste but also visually.

Robust and productive

The Carrot Ghost is characterized by its tall growth and narrow leaves, with a height of around 100 to 120 cm. This variety, cultivated in the USA, is known for its robustness and abundant yields. The plants require a lot of sun and warmth, but are surprisingly easy to care for and are therefore suitable for less experienced gardeners.

Versatile uses

Fresh, dried or processed into powder – the Carrot Ghost can be used in a variety of ways. Their pods not only give every dish an intense spiciness, but also an incomparable flavour. It develops its full aroma, particularly in sauces and marinades, and provides a certain kick.
