Poison Tail Pepper | Tyler Farms

The Poison Tail is an extremely hot and uniquely flavorful pepper bred from crossing Jay's Peach Ghost Scorpion, the infamous Carolina Reaper, and the robust SRTSL. With its striking appearance, intense heat, and complex flavor profile, the Poison Tail pepper is the perfect addition for spice enthusiasts and hot sauce creators.

Combining the genetic legacy of the Carolina Reaper and Scorpion varieties, the Poison Tail Pepper boasts extreme heat that rivals the hottest peppers in the world. Beneath its fiery sting lies a complex mix of fruity, floral, and smoky undertones, perfect for those seeking more than heat in their spicy dishes as it can be used for making ultra-hot sauces, powders, marinades, or spicy condiments.

The Poison Tail pepper showcases a wrinkled, bumpy texture and a curled “tail” reminiscent of a scorpion’s stinger, giving it a menacing and captivating look. Its color matures from green to vibrant red. Although it has not officially been tested, the Poison Tail pepper is estimated to exceed 1,500,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU), depending on growing conditions.

    I couldn’t be happier with my purchase of Poison Tail pepper seeds from Tyler Farms — these seeds are absolutely top-notch. From the moment they arrived I could tell they’d been handled with care. The packaging was clean and secure, and the seeds looked full and healthy.

    After planting them under warm, consistent conditions (around 75–85 °F soil temp, kept moist but not soggy, in loose, well-draining soil), they sprouted quickly — most within 10–14 days — and the seedlings looked vigorous and disease-free. (If you’re familiar with hot-pepper germination, using a humidity dome and maintaining warmth definitely helps.)
