The Scotch Bonnet and Habanero are related but not the same. The Habanero was domesticated in the Amazon and made its way to Central America and the Scotch Bonnet is Jamaican. Either Way, you are going to find some great flavor and heat. Keep in mind, the Habanero is going to punch you in the face with over 250,000 SHU while the Scotch Bonnet is going to scorch your taste buds with around 450,000 SHU! Just for a reference, the popular Jalapeño is between 1000 – 4000 SHU. Enjoy!
