Yes, my gut tells me it was the boil. Maybe try longer next time if you use the same setup.
I agree with the crack comment!!! When I first made it, I was afraid it would be too hot for most folks. At our Thanksgiving dinner I went through an entire jar!!! As Spinaker said, it starts sweet and pepper flavorful then "blooms" with a heat rush (but not overpowering). I suspect the endorphin rush keeps folks coming back for more ;-)
