I have Naga Jolokias growing at home, and they are damn hot. The after-taste is not particularly pleasant, but they can't be beaten for pure heat.
But be warned - they are really, really hot. Hot enough to do real damage, it would seem - those recent news stories about people dying after eating chilis - these I believe were Naga Jolokias (although they did eat a few whole chilis).

Are you talking about ghost peppers? I recently watched a show that said ghost peppers were the hottest according to the Skovill(sp?) scale.
