Decent flavor, very much habanero/scotch bonnet forward, which I like, but there's nothing particularly different going on here. Definitely hot, I'd say 8-9 out of 10. The spice is very needle-like; it immediately pin-pricks, sets fire to, and almost numbs wherever it touches in the mouth. If your gut is sensitive and you're looking for a sauce that doesn't hurt, this is NOT your sauce. For these reasons, I'd say this sauce is better to bring up the heat in a marinade, rather than as a condiment.

This sauce quickly became my absolute favorite. The flavor is incredible and it packs a serious punch of heat. If you love this sauce as much as I do, please consider buying directly from Chile Monoloco. This is the only place I’ve seen it available in the US and it is grossly overpriced compared to what the company actually sells it for. You can buy this sauce from them by a 25oz bottle. I bought 2 of those (equivalent of 10 small bottles) and with $40 international shipping, it cost less than $100. Doing the same here would cost almost double. I only say this because of the massive price difference. Still the best sauce on this planet either way!

Even if it is labelled as super hot sauce it is packed with flavors that enhance the various dishes i had with it such as poke, tacos or steak and egg (Hawaiian style). The scotch bonnet taste is present but not overwhelming; the hints of garlic and lemon enhance grilled meats... However be careful not to be too generous with your pour as it can still hurts your lips.

This is SO good! Great balance of flavor and heat. You can taste the spices - the garlic comes through nicely - as well as the citrus. The scotch bonnet and ghost peppers are on point. It’s a 6/10 on heat for me based on personal preferences (not a bad thing - gotta have a balanced pantry of sauces), but a 10/10 on flavor, balance and fun. Will be part of a regular rotation for me. Get you some!

I love this sauce!! It's one of my new favorites. I have used it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The flavors and heat (8/10) are on point for what I like as a hot sauce enthusiast. Great joining of Ghost Peppers and Scotch Bonnet Peppers. I am adding this hot sauce to my frequent reorder list.

Not a bad sauce. Reminds me of sortof fresh tomatoes and peppers with a bunch of heat. Not a lot of other flavor to it and it tastes and feels watery. It seems best on something with other bold flavors to help fill in the gap if you just want to make something hot. Might be really good as a marinade if mixed with other fresh ingredients.
