Blue Diamond Almonds XTREMES Ghost Pepper Flavored Snack Nuts, 6 Oz Resealable Cans (Pack of 1)

These Blue Diamond Ghost Pepper Flavored almonds were very delicious, but not quite as hot as one would expect for a ghost pepper product. I would definitely recommend trying them, and also recommend that the manufacturer slightly increase the amount of ghost pepper added in their recipe to make them a bit spicier. They are indeed very hot, but not as hot as you would expect for something labeled as "ghost pepper flavor." For those people who know what ghost peppers are and have enjoyed spicy foods, you can and will enjoy this product, but wish it was a tad bit spicier. The spiciness of it is more like a good habanero, with a weak flavor of a ghost pepper. This may be from the manufacturer not adding enough ghost pepper to the recipe. Nonetheless, it's a great product and a high quality product. If Blue Diamond ever reads this review, I commend you all on producing great quality foods and a variety of products and would ask that you increase the amount of ghost pepper in the recipe for this product. I gave this product 5 stars in all categories, except value for money, where I gave it 4 stars because it's slightly expensive for the amount of almonds you get and the ghost pepper flavoring is not as hot as you would expect.

These taste really good! They may be my new favorite. It's kind of a tie between these and the Cayenne Pepper ones. They're hot, but for me, not so hot that it's uncomfortable to eat them. The heat sort of builds after you eat a handful or so. If you're buying these, you're expecting heat right? The flavor is good as well. It's not only about the heat. I'll be replenishing my stash once this can is gone!

One of my favorite mass-market snacks, these almonds are delicious! Capsaicin novices would probably find them very hot, but chiliheads won't be bored. I like them a lot, would like them even better if they had more spice and less salt. 1/5/23 Edit: a tip for fellow spice lovers - These almonds have the capacity to adhere about a half teaspoon of extra chili powder per cannister. I like to add Reaper or ghost powder, close the can, and agitate gently. The result is truly hot almonds. Enhanced, they are so good, I can't eat them plain anymore. The downside is that it's nearly impossible for me to limit myself to just one serving.

I had hoped for more extreme heat, as the branding promises. These are spicy but nothing special. I've ordered them again, but probably for the last time.

These hot pepper almonds are one of my favorite snacks to keep on my desk at work! I usually have two or three cans in case I run out and they are perfect for that 230 pick me up that I need in the middle of the day! The flavor is spicy, but not too terribly hot, but I would recommend having some water or some thing else to drink on hand, they do pack a bit of a punch! Great Flavour, filling, fresh, just an overall great product. Would highly recommend.

I'm a big fan, and full disclosure used to work there a few years ago...so know how much care and pride they put into making almonds. These are ACTUALLY spicy, yet have lots of flavor and depth. I've tried lots of snacks that are either ALL heat, no flavor or meh spice level. These have flavor and a heat that creeps up on you and leaves a nice afterburn. The crunch and protein of the almond make it a very satisfying snack and my new favorite. buh bye flamin' hot chester

So hard to write reviews on items concerning taste, tastes vary for everyone. So, let me state my preference with it comes to spicy, hot items, I guess I probably already said it, I expect it to have some sort of other taste (hence, spicy...) other than simply being hot. I don't consider hot to really be a taste, it is just a sensation in my opinion. I love steamed blue crabs with heaps of seasonings /spice on them, they can sometimes have a "hot" sensation, but overall they also have a great taste, in addition to just being hot. These Ghost Pepper almonds are just hot, no other taste than the natural almond taste, so, hot almonds? Not for me, but others may disagree, just wanted to give my honest impression. I will not be buying these again

Love almonds love all the different flavors these by far are my favorite. They're spicy but totally edible the next level up the Carolina Reaper those are a little bit more of a spice challenge
