Review
This pod had very thin walls with placental lining throughout. It was heavily coated with droplets of Capsicum oil. When chewing there was no immediate heat. After swallowing, it started under the tongue. It was a super creeper, taking a while to build, but it got pretty hot. The flavor was mild, fruity and sweet. I think it has a lot of applicable uses.
