Well, I tried to do a web search for places around Avon, OH for ghost, scorpion & reaper peppers. No such luck at all. So I continued searching & found this place in Illinois that sells fresh in season (now) & dried & even dried/smoked... https://ghostpepperstore.3dcartstores.com/ Good prices & uses USPS prority mail. I decided against the scorpions, as they're said to be as high as 2,009,231 scoville! Here's the two I chose for my Hellfire IIPA;
Red Ghosts; https://ghostpepperstore.3dcartstores.com/Fresh-Red-Ghost-Peppers-2-oz_p_88.html 1m scoville, 2oz equals 8-10 peppers.
Red Fatalii; https://ghostpepperstore.3dcartstores.com/Fresh-Red-Fatalii-2-oz_p_79.html Known more for it's flavor than heat, but heat comparable to a habenero. Said by the site to be full of flavor. They only ship on Monday & Wednesday by 6am, so they won't go out till this Monday. Dang it, missed the boat this weekend when it cools down. Gotta look up that thread we were doing about the hot pepper beer. Forgot if the boil was for heat & secondary for flavor or vise-versa?...
