33) Pequin.
Looking like a hot volcanic puffed rice kernel, dried Pequin Chillis are roughly ½” long by ¼” wide and are reddish orange in color. Pequins are often associated with cuisine from the mountain ranges of northern Mexico. Pequin Chile translates to “tiny chile” and chile heads know that the smaller the chile is in size the larger it is in heat! Pequin s are considered a hot chile and these come in at 40,000 to 58,000 SHU (Scoville Heat Units).
The flavor profile of the Pequin chile is citrusy and nutty with a hint of smokiness. Also known as “bird pepper” this is a favourite of many bird species who enjoy the fruity flavor but unlike mammals are immune to the heat. Native to Mexico there are several varieties of this chile some are conical and others round. These are also called Birds Eye, Bravo, Chilequin, Chiltipiquni, Grove Pepper, Mosquito, Pequeno and Turkey Pepper. Do not confuse Pequin Chiles with the similar looking African Bird’s Eye Chile (or African Devil Chile). Green chillis are often picked and pickled while the more mature turn red and are then dried. There are many chile heads who believe this is one of those chillis that’s more flavorful dried than fresh as the drying process tends to really bring out the flavor.
Pequin Chiles are a common ingredient in liquid hot pepper seasonings and with their rich flavor they add a fiery zest to beans, sauces, soups and stews. Easily crush the dried chillis and sprinkle on bean and rice dishes, homemade salsas and any number of Latin dishes in need of some spicy, tangy flavor. Add 1 or 2 to your Mexican Moles.
Toast and then rehydrate your Pequin Chiles and you can make a zesty puree with a delightful earthy flavor with hints of roasted peanuts.
34) Scotch Bonnet Jamaican yellow or red

35) Birds eye chilli
Bird's eye chili, bird eye chili, bird's chili, chile de arbol, or Thai chili is a chili pepper, a cultivar from the species Capsicum annuum, commonly found in Ethiopia and Southeast Asia. The bird's eye chili is small, but is quite hot (piquant). It measures around 100,000–225,000 Scoville units, which is at the lower half of the range for the hotter habanero chili but still many times more spicy than a jalapeño.
36) The Yellow habanero is a variety of chili pepper. Unripe habaneros are green, and they color as they mature. The most common color variants are orange and red, but the fruit may also be white, brown, yellow, green, chocolate or purple. Typically, a ripe habanero chili is 2–6 cm long. Habanero chilis are very hot, rated 100,000–350,000 on the Scoville scale.The habanero's heat, its flavor, and its floral aroma have made it a popular ingredient in hot sauces and spicy foods.

This is an absolute winner.
Measuring the chillis heat
The Scoville scale is a measure of the 'hotness' of a chilli pepper or anything derived from chilli peppers, i.e. hot sauce. The scale is actually a measure of the concentration of the chemical compound capsaicin which is the active component that produces the heat sensation for humans.
The hotness is measured in SHU’s ie Scoville Heat Units
Ie the hottest is 2,200,000 SHU’s (that’s 2.2 million SHU’s)
A habanero which is pretty hot for most is about 450,000 SHU’s max
And a Jalapeno is around 5,000
Note the Carolina Reaper at 2.2 million SHU’s rates with pepper spray on the chart below.
42) Trinidad Scorpion Moruga
"You take a bite. It doesn't seem so bad, and then it builds and it builds and it builds. So it is quite nasty.
Aside from the heat, the Trinidad moruga scorpion has a tender fruit-like flavor, which makes it a sweet-hot combination. The pepper can be grown from seeds in most parts of the world. I The Trinidad moruga scorpion (Capsicum chinense) is native to the district of Moruga in Trinidad and Tobago. On February 13, 2012, New Mexico State University's Chile Pepper Institute identified the Trinidad moruga scorpion as the hottest chili in the world, with a mean heat of more than 1.2 million Scoville heat units (SHUs) and individual plants with a heat of more than 2 million SHUs. According to the Chile Pepper Institute, the previous record holder was the Bhut jolokia of India, as it never accepted the Infinity chili and Naga Viper pepper that were previous record holders per Guinness World Records. The current world record holder is the Carolina Reaper with 2.2million SHU.
43) Hungarian Wax chilli
Yellow to red.
Weighing in on the mild side at 2500 to 8000 Scoville units, the Hungarian Wax is a variety of paprika pepper. Developed in Hungary, home of paprika, another notable pepper product. These peppers are also known as hot yellow peppers or hot wax peppers. Hungarian wax peppers can be used in a variety of ways in cooking or sliced or kept in brine.
44) Scorpion Butch T
The Trinidad scorpion 'Butch T' pepper is a Capsicum chinense cultivar that is among the most piquant peppers in the world. It is derived from the Trinidad scorpion, which is indigenous to Trinidad and Tobago. It was named by Neil Smith from The Hippy Seed Company, after he got the seeds originally from Butch Taylor (the owner of Zydeco Farms in Woodville/Crosby, Mississippi, and a hot sauce company) who is responsible for propagating the pepper's seeds. The "scorpion" peppers are referred to as such because the pointed end of the pepper is said to resemble a scorpion's stinger.
The Trinidad scorpion 'Butch T' pepper was, for three years, ranked the most pungent ("hot") pepper in the world according to Guinness World Records. A laboratory test conducted in March 2011 measured a specimen at 1,463,700 Scoville heat units, officially ranking it the hottest pepper in the world at that time. One possible secret to the chilli’s heat, according to a cultivator of the pepper, is fertilizing the soil with the liquid runoff of a worm farm. In August 2013, Guinness World Records recognized the Carolina Reaper as the hottest pepper in the world, at 1,569,300 SHU.
45) Bahamian Goat chilli
The Bahamian goat is a little bit of a Scoville unit mystery. Some claim its range is the same as its habanero and Scotch bonnet relatives (100,000 to 350,000 Scoville heat units). Others say that its bottom range never goes so low, stopping at 250,000 SHU. Still others pronounce scorching hot heat from this peach of a chili – kickin’ it at near 600,000 SHU, a similar heat to a Red Savina or chocolate habanero.
Regardless, it’s safe to say the goat pepper is hot. At least as hot as the habanero, with the potential for much more. Comparing it to our jalapeño reference point – it’s 12 to 140 times hotter, depending on the luck of the draw due to the variances in heat between both peppers
46) Fatalii Yellow
Originally from the Americas, like all chilli species, the specific variety known as Fatalii was 'discovered' and is thought to have developed in Central Africa.[1] Since commerce between the Americas and Africa has spanned some four centuries or more, this is uncontroversial.
The plants typically grow 20 to 25 inches (51–64 cm) in height, but may reach 3 feet (0.91 m) or taller under optimal growing conditions, and plant distance should be about the same. The pendant pods get 2.5 to 3.5 inches (6.4–8.9 cm) long and about 0.75 to 1.5 inches (1.9–3.8 cm) wide. From a pale green, the most common variety matures to a bright yellow. Less common are red, chocolate and white Fataliis. The red version of Fatalii apparently has a somewhat different flavor and shorter, wider pods, maturing from medium green to dark red but the strain is unstable, throwing yellow and orange fruit.[2] The white Fatalii tastes very like the standard yellow version, but lighter and more citrusy, and has similar heat, perhaps a fraction less.
47) Devils Tongue (chocolate)
Hot, hot, hot chilli, fantastic flavour and great heat level. This is good eaten fresh in salad or used in a chilli. The pods are long, 2 to 3 inches by 1 to 1.5 inches wide. Turns from green to chocolate. This chilli is outrageously hot! Capsicum chinense
48) Bulawayo Bullet
The Bulawayo Bullet comes from Bulawayo, southern Zimbabwe. Definitely hottish It is very similar to the South African birds eye chilli and just as hot

51) Padrón peppers are a variety of peppers from the municipality of Padrón in the province of A Coruña, Galicia, north western Spain.] These are small peppers (about 5 cm long), with a color ranging from bright green to yellowish green, and occasionally red. Their peculiarity lies on the fact that, while their taste is usually mild, a minority (10-25%) are particularly hot. Whether a given pepper ends up being hot or mild depends on the amount of water and sunlight it receives during its growth, in addition to temperature. It's said that solely watering the soil of the plant is likely to produce milder pimentos, whilst watering the whole plant, leaves and stalks included, produces peppers of the spicier variety.
The peppers are customarily fried in oil and served as tapas.
52) Anaheim peppers
'Anaheim' peppers are commonly grown outside of New Mexico, and are related to the 'New Mexico No. 6 and 9', but when grown out of state, they have a higher variability rate.
Green chillis are served roasted and peeled, whole or diced, and in various sauces. The most common uses for these diced chillis, or sauces, is in enchiladas, burritos, burgers, French fries, or rice. They are also served whole raw or as fried or baked chile rellenos. New Mexican-style chile rellenos follow the much more traditional Mexican technique of being covered with egg batter and fried, although variations and casseroles do exist.
In addition to local restaurants, many national food chains such as McDonald's and Jack in the Box offer locally grown green chile on many of their menu items in New Mexico.

54) Trinidad Perfume on Amazon (no heat) When you hear the term ”Trinidad” in relation to chilli peppers, a world of super-hots come to mind: the super-fiery Trinidad Moruga scorpion or one of its Caribbean relatives like the extra-hot Habanero or Scotch bonnet. But in the case of the Trinidad Perfume, while the pepper carries a similar “gonna burn you up” look, its heat is far from it – it’s more akin to a bell pepper in fieriness than a scorpion pepper. Yet the Trinidad Perfume still carries that delicious fruitiness those super-hots are known for, making this chilli a perfect low-heat option for tropical salsas and hot sauces.

59) Cherry Bomb
Boy, the Cherry Bomb pepper comes loaded with a lot of expectation due to its moniker. You may be thinking mouth explosion! But, really, this hybrid chilli carries more of a modest boom, about the heat of a milder jalapeño pepper. It’s very eatable heat for those that enjoy spicy food, and it’s a wonderful step-up from the milder “cherry” pepper, the pimento. It’s terrific stuffed or pickled, so it’s a unique alternative to jalapeños for many of your favourite stuffed popper recipes. How hot are Cherry Bomb peppers? Their Scoville Scale range falls at the very bottom of medium heat peppers, from 2,500 to 5,000 Scoville heat units. That puts it in line with jalapeño peppers, but jalapeños do have the potential of carrying quite a bit more heat (up to 8,000 SHU). This level of spiciness is well in the family-friendly zone for most eaters who can handle a moderate amount of spicy food.
