habaneros
Very hot chilies
Habaneros are small, lantern-shaped chile peppers known for their intense heat and fruity, citrusy flavor.
They rank among the hottest commonly available peppers, typically measuring 100,000 to 350,000 Scoville units.
The name comes from Havana, Cuba, though the peppers are most associated with Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula.
Habaneros ripen to bright orange, red, or yellow and appear in hot sauces, salsas, and dishes where serious heat is desired.
I added half a habanero and my eyes still watered.
