Siling Labuyo (small chili pepper) is commonly used in many Bicolano cuisines. [6] [16] Under the Scoville scale, the Scoville Heat Unit of the siling labuyo is 100,000 SHU and siling haba is 50,000 SHU but each of these chili peppers can vary depending on the conditions of their growing environments. [17]
The Scoville scale is a measurement of pungency (spiciness or "heat") of chili peppers and other substances, recorded in Scoville heat units (SHU). It is based on the concentration of capsaicinoids , among which capsaicin is the predominant component.
Chili pepper species and cultivars registering over 1,000,000 Scoville Heat units (SHU) are called "super-hots". Past Guinness World Record holders (in increasing order of hotness) include the ghost pepper, Infinity chili, Trinidad Moruga scorpion, Naga Viper pepper, Trinidad Scorpion Butch T, and Carolina Reaper.

It may be mistaken for a similar-looking chili derived from the species Capsicum frutescens, the cultivar siling labuyo.

[3] Tabasco fruits, like all other members of the C. frutescens species, remain erect when mature, rather than hanging down from their stems.
