The Carolina reaper is an absolute capsaicin beast. peppers have been measured using the scoville scale. It was started by Wilbur Scoville in 1912. Originally, the level of spice.
It has no known SHU value but, on a scale of naught to the hottest Reaper sauce that I've had, I'd say it's a 4.5/10. Hotter than most supermarket sauces but not on par with even, say, the best of Ghost stuff. If I had to estimate an SHU, I'd say about 75K but that's just a rough estimate.

À propos de Sauce Reaper Encona LTD Edition. Une sauce piquante au bon goût de tomate relevée par le feu du reaper. Les amateurs de chaleur apprécieront de s'approcher de ce piment redoutable sans craindre de véritable morsure. C'est une sauce au piquant fort à mi-chemin entre la sauce BBQ et le ketchup. On la dévore avec des frites !
