This particular mouth destroyer was created by Ed Currie, who founded the appropriately-named Puckerbutt Pepper Company. He's also responsible for the Reaper, which held the title of world's hottest pepper (at 1.5 million Scoville units) until it was bested by Dragon's Breath (2.48 Scoville units) in May.
