Torchbearer can always be counted on to have some amusing bottle art, and the amorous onion putting the moves on the dapper habanero on this one is no exception. This is a sauce I’ve heard good things about, but one that was sadly languishing in the back of my cupboard waiting for me to find…
Hellfire, the title of one of the top 3 Disney villain songs as well as the sulfurous power granted to Harry Dresden by means of being half-possessed by a demonic coin in the Dresden Files series, just sounds pretty dang badass and cool. It also sounds quite spicy. Does this beef jerky live up to…
I’ve always been a fan of Tabasco products. With a long history steeped in tradition they’re also not afraid to experiment and try new things. While the original and Family Reserve varieties rely on their age-old three ingredient formula of fermented peppers, vinegar, and salt, they’ve taken inspirations from global cuisines and other styles of…
Elijah’s hot sauces, especially their Xtreme line, have been popular in online hot sauce forums for their combination of solid heat and flavor.

So far the sauces I’ve tried from Gindo’s have all been excellent, so when Thanksgiving rolled around I decided it was the perfect opportunity…
With the tagline of “got the guts? eat my nuts!” and the cheeky double-entendre in the name of this particular product it’s clear that Hot Monkey Nuts has a pretty slick marketing department and is going for an irreverent and fun vibe with their products and targeted clientele. According to their website the owner found…
Vermont is something of an unexpected hot sauce hot spot. Known in most of the country for Bernie Sanders, Phish, and maple syrup, hot sauce isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when you consider our nation’s 2nd-least populous state. Lurking beneath those idyllic snow covered hills and quaint villages smelling of woodsmoke and…
Haico’s Hot Sauce was founded by the eponymous Haico in Ottawa, Canada. Haico immigrated from the Netherlands to Canada in 2005 and found that he missed the spicy flavors from his Indian and Indonesian family members.
