I got this for my dad last Christmas because he's a fan of Hot Ones and he loved it! It's a good balance of flavor and heat. I recently repurchased it for him and the Rojo flavor was sent by accident (also very good, but not as good as the original). Customer service was excellent, replied to my inquiry within 24 hours and sent the correct flavor.

This is amazing. I would say this is a mild/medium spice as opposed to full medium. It's a warming sensation on your tongue and definitely builds on itself the more you eat it. The flavor is amazing. It's not overly sweet, just a touch of sweetness right when you taste it, then a slightly smokey flavor and the heat comes. Its very good and seems versatile like it would go well on any food really. Very happy with my purchase!

Pretty good all around hot sauce but the flavor seems to fade quickly. The smokiness is also more reminiscent of tex-mex rather than cali-mex.

Whenever they showed people talking about how great this sauce was on episodes of Hot Ones, I knew I needed to try it and boy was I not disappointed. It's got a nice, thick consistency like a salsa or chutney and the flavor is fantastic. The sweet fruity flavor of the apricot and apple cider, the tartness of the tomatillo, and the spice from the serrano and habanero peppers mingle together in perfect harmony. I tried it on wings, pizza, burgers, tacos and sandwiches and it went great on all of them. If you want great flavor and a nice level of heat, this sauce is perfect.

seriously, right from the first taste it blew my mind, the balance of spices is spot on, its not really hot but just perfect to put on anything. Totally worth the experience.

I'm not usually one for the sweeter sauces but I absolutely love this one. I like the amount of taste it has with the amount of heat. I will be ordering it again.

I was honestly intimidated by the 5/10 spice rating on this sauce but it is absolutely delicious. If you go overboard with it, it does have a kick to it but it's so flavorful it doesn't bother me. It's so good, we went through the bottle in a few days. We ordered 3 more and are already on the second bottle. It's good on everything. The best hot sauce ever.

First bite of this remind you of Chicken and sour cream enchiladas at some tropical Island vacation spot. Add a Pina Colada for a vacation full of flavor!
