I have bought the entire S9 Hot Ones lineup save the last dab (not in stock yet) and recreated the wings challenge at home. This one right in the middle of the heat lineup blew me away with its clear, clean, punchy flavor. There's some heat, but more than anything, this is just darn tasty. Beyond what others have posted, I've also eaten it on turkey sandwiches and chicken salad just to add an interesting layer of flavor. I've already ordered my second bottle. In a sea of similarly flavored hot sauces at various Scoville levels, this one is a definite standout- if you want something different, give this a try, it's unique and delicious.

The first sauce I bought here because it was the middle point of the line-up. What started as a strange surprise turned into what I could honestly put on anything; all the background effects of a more extreme hot-sauce with none of the "in-your-face" effect. A great introduction to some hotter sauces and hot sauce in general for those interested. It'll be hard not to have some of this at all times; used up the whole bottle in what seemed like a weekend. It's intelligently made, tasty and with all the introductory elements of a hotter sauce. Goes great with Wing-Stop "Atomic Wings." Can't recommend it enough. You need a hot sauce sparring partner? Los Calientes is it.

I found out about the YouTube show Hot Ones about two weeks ago I wanted the discontinued sauce, and this is the replacement. I really like the flavor it has an enjoyable amount of heat, but not a food killer by any means. The flavor is fantastic it would be outstanding on Mexican food with its green Chile, citrus, and heat. One warning is the top is open and I poured way too much out, and will have to reorder soon.

Will be buying my third bottle of this soon. It's got an excellent fruity and savory flavor with a gentle heat, and goes awesome on chicken wings, and even nachos.

Los Calientes is the perfect blend of heat and flavors. I agree that you tend to use more due to it's great flavor. But I feel it is worth every penny as a result. Wonderful flavors with just the right amount of heat.

This is spicy salsa verde. It's not as hot as I'd like though, so it goes fast. Considering the contents (similar to dipping sauce) and the consumption rate, this is pretty overpriced.

I got the bottle you know like everyone else gets theres. Well I opened the bottle and it smelled bad like old liquid or somthing and when I look inside the bottle cap there was mold so I had to throw it away.

It’s like the islands in a bottle... nice complex flavors with a tinge of lime and apricot at the end. I could drink it straight out of the bottle it’s so good! Not spicy for the hotheads out there... just a small tingle. My wife who doesn’t like spicy loves this sauce.
