What is a Scoville Unit Rating? A "Scoville Unit" is actually a measure of capsaicin (the chemical in hot peppers that is responsible for their heat.) Invented by pharmacist Wilbur Scoville in 1912, the Scoville test was a comparative taste test that is considered subjective by today's standards. A more sophisticated method is in use today, but in honor of Wilbur Scoville, the unit of measure is still called the Scoville.
