It’s been a Bastard of a day today.

Over 80 varieties of chillies in the sink, all waiting to be de-stemmed for a batch of The Bastard.

Safe to say my hands and forearms are feeling the effects tonight. 🔥🌶️

If you’ve ever wondered where the heat comes from, here’s a small glimpse of the madness behind the scenes.

It was a saucy Sunday with a fresh batch of The Yellow Bastard bubbling away in the cauldron today. 🌶️🔥

After the first heat test, we all agreed this might just be the hottest batch yet — a slow creeping ramp of heat that keeps building until the tears start flowing and the endorphins kick in. 😂

But underneath the brutality is a seriously addictive flavour profile… sweet citrus notes, fresh fruity brightness, and that unmistakable yellow superhot character that keeps you coming back for more.

This one is an absolute monster. 💛🔥

🔥 Reaper x SRTSL 🔥

One of the wildest superhot hybrids out there, Reaper x SRTSL combines the brutal heat of the Carolina Reaper with SRTSL (Sara Ragoonanan Trinidad Scorpion Long) genetics. Originally bred by Paul Willet and later refined by Giancarlo Fadda of Fadda’s Peppers, this variety has become famous for its insanely long stingers, aggressive blistering, and twisted pod shapes.

The plants are vigorous and highly productive, producing deep red pods with oily skin and tails that can grow longer than the pod itself. Heat levels are absolutely extreme — comfortably pushing beyond 1,500,000 SHU — backed by a surprisingly fruity, floral flavour before the burn completely takes over.

A savage but stunning variety to grow, and an absolute must for collectors and serious superhot fans. 🌶️🔥
