Made with Northwest Sea Salt and the infamous Bhut Jolokia pepper (Ghost Chile), this is sure to add some spice to whatever you decide to sprinkle it on. While the Ghost Pepper has measured in excess of 1 million Scoville units, this salt has great flavor in addition to great heat.

History or fiction? Where and how did the Ghost pepper come about? What they think happened was that the chile pepper during its 16-century global trek, arrived through unknown means to Northeast India. When it got there, it was planted in a unique climate, bred by local hands, and before you know it, we got the spiciest chile in the World at the time. It held the Guinness Book of World Records for the World’s hottest pepper from 2007 to 2010. It is also called Bhut Jolokia. The word ‘bhut’ which means ghost, given from the Bhutia people, most likely because the heat sneaks up on you like a ghost. (then hits you with a full heat expolosion in your mouth) The ghost pepper is also known by names such as Naga Jolokia, Bih Jolokia, or ghost chile. Do note that ‘Naga’ means ‘cobra snake’ in Sanskrit.
