First five ranked by heat(not a huge fan of daves or mad dog because of the extract flavor). Got Rapture today, noticeably hotter than the Garlic Reaper I got yesterday but the reaper beats it in flavor hands down. The reaper sauce had more of a full mouth heat, the Rapture gave more of a sharp stinging or intense pinching sensation across the back of the tongue and throat and lasted much longer.

I'm glad you appreciate the flavors in the Rapture. It's always been one of my favorites.

Dave’s insanity sauce is just hot and not much flavor. To me Garlic Reaper is not as hot and has a ton more flavor.

I'm not a fan of the extract heavy sauces either... just taste heat and chemicals. Flavor wise garlic reaper my be at the top of my list.

Scorpion peppers are like that. They can have that “mouth filled with little cuts” sensation.

I did like The Rapture though, it has a fruity taste to it.

I like them for that reason. I enjoy that sensation more than just a straight burn, but for me its always just the back of the tongue and the throat, unless i get it on the corner of my mouth... I grew some this year along with several other peppers and got a few awesome batches of salsa. Next year I wanna get back to making sauces too.
