As I understand it, they somehow extract "pure cap" from the peppers using 
some method. I'll leave that explanation to the scientists. The part I 
wanted to comment on is the taste. I have been told that this extraction 
process leaves behind a byproduct that doesn't taste very good. The best 
extracts are further processed to remove that gunk. And, of course, the 
taste will be affected by the quality and types of peppers you start with.
