Review:
This was probably one of the most intense creeper burns I’ve had, relative to the amount of pod I ate. I took one big bite from the front end, and didn’t get much heat. The flavor kind of bhut like. The second bite was all but the last inch of pod toward the back end. The heat build slowly over the next eight minutes but became pretty intense toward the end.
