King Chilli Sauce

The Naga King Chilli ( Capsicum Chinense / Frutescens ) is a traditional food item of the Naga people. Nagaland is believed to be the original home of this chilli pepper and Nagaland Government has obtained the Geographic Indication (GI) rights for this product in 2008. This chilli pepper is called by various names such as Naga Jolokia, Naga Morich, Bhut Jolikia, Ghost Pepper etc. Whatever the names by which it is called they seem to be only different varieties of the same chilli. The Guinness Book of World Records had awarded this chilli pepper the status of the hottest in the world in the year September 2006 (1001304 SHU)
