Man, I don't know what's up with all these reviews. This was hot, and it did give that kick but not to the point where it ruined everything, however, the taste was horrible. It truly was the worst sauce I've ever tasted. Nobody in my family liked it and we just gave it away to someone who loves spicy food but even he just hated the taste. This sauce is from the devil. Be warned.

I don't think I have much to say that hasn't already been written. In a summary, it is sufficiently hot to give your mouth a good kick but not so hot you regret it. At the end of the day, the bottle will be go quick because of the flavor.

I bought about $120 worth of hot sauce from these guys after watching a ton of First We Feast. This was one of them. And my god... Those first two bites wear i put a couple dabs on a cracker, summer sausage, and cheese (think those holiday pack ones).... I was in tears. I underestimated this sauce. But now, a month later, this sauce is almost gone! I put it on almost everything! (I also opened a couple humble house bottles and the blueberry/ghost pepper sauce. Which are all delicious). But holy crap, this one stands out as one of my favorite hot sauces ever. I still have yet to open the bottle of Reduxx, that almost scares me.

Super spicy, very interesting taste. You only need a little bit. Nothing bad to say about this sauce, I love it.

Talk about deliciously spicy! Each bite packs a punch hard enough to put any domestic abuser behind bars, yet this is the sauce that hurts so good its a fetish. One of the best spiciest sauces I've ever had, this one deserves a space in anyone's fridge.

This sauce makes me sweat, as it has a really strong, but also very sensory and complex heat. Out of all sauces made by Brody Dawson, this is definetly my favourite, as it has such a unique flavour profile. I would go as far as leaving the description of the taste as "indescribably good". Every component just plays together so well, while still delivering an amazing amount of heat. There is no steak on my plate that goes without this stuff and I can honestly say that tasting it is an experience for itself.

Make the best dipping sauce for bbq prawns or as a final toss through in a chinese style stir fry. For a different approach also goes really well brushed over a porterhouse/sirloin before frying. Punchy straight up with a generous lingering heat.

Only tried it with simple noodles, The transformation is amazingly delicious with a beautiful kick from only a few drops.
