800,000 SHU. Bubblegum Scorpion is a cross between a Scorpion and 7 Pot Bubblegum, from the creator Butch Taylor. This chili boasts a deep, fruity flavor, delivering a punch that feels like it exceeds its Scoville rating. Similar in taste to the Trinidad Moruga Scorpion, the Bubblegum Scorpion is distinguished by its unique crown, which bleeds red, adding a visual appeal to its fruity, delicious, and extremely hot profile, clocking in at 800,000 Scoville Units. Non-Isolated.
