My hubby LOVES this sauce. The mushroom with a little bite of heat really does it for him. He puts this on EVERYTHING he can find.

As the adage goes, even bad pizza is pretty good; but with this hot sauce, any pizza is AMAZING! Are you a weirdo who doesn't put hot sauce on pizza? Well, one taste of this combo will change your mind forever. I appreciate the deep mushroom character that jumps out on your palate, and this is what I think makes it spectacular on a pie. I seriously will use no other sauce on pizza now. I used to be pretty convinced that nothing complimented a slice better Tobasco Chipolte, but this does it; nothing better! I could take a slow burn IV drip of pepperoni grease and Lion's Mane Piri Piri and feel satisfied with what my life had become. Seriously any style or topping, this shit rocks. From woodfired to Chicago, I haven't found a combo that doesn't work, Even with pineapple. I have one more bucket list thing to do with this sauce, and then my life really will be complete: enjoy on a Mellow Mushroom Pie. I highly recommend to everyone!!!

Very very good with stir fry and Chinese. Only reason it gets 4 stars is because I find it somewhat limited to what I can put it on due to its sweetness.

This is my new favorite Heatonist offering! Maybe I'm a softy for red bell pepper bases and habanero, but to me this a wonderful sauce. The lion's mane really adds some depth to this sauce that I have a hard time describing. I've tried a lot of sauces on this site, and this is probably my current all around go to favorite. The heat is just right. You can abuse this on your food and not really worry about having to pay for it for the next couple minutes. This hits all my check boxes and I will definitely be ordering more! Mad props!

I've never had a more addictive sauce. I've now tried it on pizza, tacos, chicken, and eggs! It's so good!

This is Cholula's hotter sister! She tempts you with her red hair and pulls you in for a big ole kiss with her habanero lips! She is a classy lady, so classy you can bring her to work and show her off to even the dullest of pallets. 10/10 would order again!

This is definitely a favorite sauce of mine. A strong favorite! I smashed my bottle in a week, squeezing it on everything I could find. It’s not hot, in the family of sriracha heat wise but with the same versatility. It’s a thicker sauce. It’s got oil and is very smooth. Garlic stands out as well as the white wine. Along with the red bells pepper, the flavor profile is lively and bright. This is probably a go to guilty pleasure chicken nugget sauce for me! At home on a burger, hot dog or on chicken! Chicken wings... murder! The heat can sneak up on you but it’s never too much! This came in April and was done quickly. Thank you heatonist! Yummy! -Hilly

This sauce does it's Job but there is room for improvement. The garlicky taste is too strong for this sauce. However, The spiciness of the sauce fits well with what they were trying to do. This sauce isn't bad but it's not as good as it is hyped up to be. Overall, this is a decent sauce with just too much garlic. I wish I could give it a 3.5 but the website is not allowing for that option.
