no. 11, 3M+ SHU of Infernal Heat
Ultra-hot pepper blend delivering 3M+ SHU with "fantastic" flavor and "clean burn." Customers praised the well-made grinder's precise dispensing control. Most loved the intense heat and portability, though some wished for more heat or quantity. "Great blend" works on everything from soups to ice cream. Highly recommended as a gift.
I love this stuff. I don’t know what peppers are in it but you have a winner with that one.
My wife bought me the 10 verity deal for my birthday and they’re great too. But #11 fantastic. 4 pumps in a bowl of salsa and I’m sweating by the end. I grow a wide verity of hot peppers myself but you guys definitely have a great blend. I will be trying all of your products as time goes by.
Fantastic customer service, my first order went missing, contacted Spice Quest by email and received a prompt response. after a couple days they sent a replacement.
I let some of my apprentices try number 11 and 4 and they love it some of them hate spicy stuff but they said it like micro-dosing the sensation goes away in a minute.
Right now everything is sold out, I’m going to order more for a few of my apprentices.
Love this! Gives Da bomb a run for its money. Love that we can control the ‘dose’ by just pushing on the grinder head slightly because that’s all you need to melt your face. Thankfully the caution label and warning cards it shipped with had us being very careful because this has some serious heat kick.
It just arrived - the grinder has a nice weight to it and feels well-made. I know you wouldn't advise this, but I did one pump of level 11 spice into my hand and ate it directly, and that is some serious spice. I think it's going to get a lot of use.
Thanks!
Really impressed the recipient!
The spice dispenser delivers the perfect amount. It is very nicely made. The #11 is a very clean burn, very happy.
I bought these spices for my husband for Valentine's Day 💘 He absolutely loves them. They are the rave in my house. Thank you so very much! We will definitely be getting refills. Highly recommend for any occasion.
I wanted to give it 5 stars but it just didn’t seem like a big jump from 10 to 11. Tastes amazing and the quality is superb. Just wish it brought more heat. Keep up the amazing work.
Be cautious with this one! Keep your hands away from your face. It is the supremely powerful pepper. Wonderful to use when you want unbridled heat.
Fantastic!!! The best & hottest Chili flake I’ve ever had in the most spectacular grinder ever created. Thank you for existing Spice Quest!!
Even # 1 has a kick . .
So good, fast growing heat, flavor, definitely will plan to refill when I run out!
This is really good. And its HOT!
One of the best bad decisions. I got for my food. It has great flavor and quite a kick of heat 10/10. Would buy it again.
The 'best bad decision' <<< I think I need to make an ad campaign with this headline. LOVE IT and THANK YOU! Fabio/Founder
I highly recommend. The pepper grinder itself is exceptionally well made and portable. The pepper itself is very hot as you would expect and should be wanting if you are buying this in the first place. It hits hard and fast that while very hot also has a fantastic almost chocolate hints. And while hot it doesn't stick around too long. It's a pleasant hot that lasts just long enough to enjoy while eating. I highly recommend this. I am very happy with my purchase and will be buying refills when I run out.
Thank you for such an excellent review! I’m thrilled to hear you’re enjoying the no. 11 and that the heat complements the delightful chocolate notes—those flavors are exactly what we aimed for! Your excitement for refills tells us we’re doing something right, and I can't wait for you to explore more with us!

Hot but flavorful.
It means a lot to hear that the flavor still shines through even at the higher heat levels. We’re glad it made an impression and that you'd recommend it to others. Thank you again for your support.
Very great customer service. Would buy again. Good spice.
Awesome grinders , great control and great heat . Love the limited edition grinders , with information about the growers.
Really appreciate that, Andrew. The control is something we put a lot of thought into, and it's great to hear you're enjoying the grower info too.
Gave a full set to my son for his birthday. He loves them and said he can't wait to try them all!
So glad your son’s enjoying them, Christina. Hopefully you get a taste too! Thanks for making us part of his birthday.
These guys are rocking it
Very cool design and very innovative
I’m grateful you noticed the design. We put so much thought into making No. 11 not just functional but enjoyable to look at and use.
Wish I had known about this sooner! It's perfect!
Thank you! We wish you had as well. But you have the power to prevent this from happening to others -- spread the word :) Fabio/Founder
its hot and exactly what i wanted
Short, sweet, and spicy — just like your review. Glad it hit the mark. 🔥

Delicious, nice heat, and convenient
Thank you! We worked real hard to bring the heat without compromising flavor — so really glad to hear you felt that.
The No. 11 grinder from Spice Quest is an absolute must-have for true heat seekers.
"If you do not eat Jalapeños and Pequin peppers like apples and nuts as a snack, you may want to start at level 5, if you do then you're in the right territory."
This isn't your average store-bought heat—it's bold, bright, and addictive. this blend brings serious fire and flavor.
I’ve even put it on ice cream, and it somehow works beautifully. It actually gives my habanero syrup a run for its money, which says a lot. Whether you're adding it to savory dishes or experimenting with sweet ones, the No. 11 delivers pure spicy joy.
Definitely will be ordering refills of this, Spice Quest knocked it out of the park with this one. 🔥
Wow — this review brought a huge smile to my face. You nailed exactly what we were going for with No. 11: unapologetic intensity with a flavor profile that still plays well beyond just heat. Love that you’re using it on ice cream (respect!), and that line about jalapeños and pequins as snacks might be the best litmus test I’ve ever heard. Thank you for the love — and yes, we’ll be ready with refills whenever you need to reload. 🔥

This comment goes with another one I posted a couple of weeks ago. Put this up on the bar and the guys went straight through the 1-10 and started using the 11. They keep asking if I have anything hotter. They’re go to spice is at 6M SHU. Please keep me posted if you come up with anything hotter. Thanks again.
You’ve officially broken the meter — and I love it. Truly grateful for the enthusiasm and the challenge. I’ll absolutely keep you posted if we manage to cook up something even hotter. Appreciate you keeping us on our toes.
Great Heat
Short and sweet — love it! Thank you.
Definitely brings the heat
Thanks, Timothy! We’re glad No. 11 delivered the heat — it's definitely not for the faint of heart. Appreciate you giving it a go. Just try not to go overboard! :)
This was given as a gift and they loved it! It became the envy of the “hot stuff” club at their work!
Thank you for sharing this—it’s awesome to hear our kit stirred up some spicy envy at work! Knowing it brought joy (and a little friendly competition) to the heat lovers makes me smile.
