SR: >1,000,000[1] SHU
The Naga Morich is a chili pepper originally grown in India and Bangladesh. There is no consensus on whether this is synonymous with the Bhut Jolokia, or a different variety. It is also one of the hottest known chilli peppers and the only naturally occurring chili pepper that measures 1 million SHU on Scoville scale. Morich is the word for chilli pepper in Bengali (মরিচ), with similar words in Assamese: (মৰিচ) (moris), Nepali, Hindi (मिर्च) and the languages of Nagaland and Manipur. Naga Morich is registered under the Geographical Indications (GI) of Nagaland by Government of India.[2]
