“Los Calientes tastes incredible. There's a lot of nuance in the flavor, and the different ingredients work perfectly together but they all come through on their own individual notes. LOVE.”

“I’m going to keep this short. This is such an amazing hot hot sauce. I’ve never got the opportunity to taste such greatness in all the years that I’ve been living. I put it in almost everything I eat and it never fails to impress. Turkey sandwich, burgers, hot dogs, and just about anything I can think of. Buy this sauce if you know what’s good for you.”

“This is a sauce with a rather mild heat, and possesses some very dark, sweet and citrusy flavors. It’s a good sauce, but it almost has too much going on. The apricot is extremely prevalent, so take that into consideration if you aren’t a fan of apricots. I would get completely behind this sauce if the lemon was much more prevalent, with maybe some lime or orange added to the mix. Very exciting and worth the buy for a first time experience.”

“I gotta that this is some pretty good sauce... but it is glorified salsa, let's face the facts. It has a really nice balance of flavors, and the use of apple cider vinegar gives a nice touch to the pepper mash. My only critique comes from my own insane level of spice tolerance; this one just doesn't affect me at all even though I can tell it has a little zing to it. I used almost half the bottle in one sitting... so, maybe it is amazing? And I was actually sitting here being petty about whether I should give it four or five stars but I realized that I used half a bottle in one sitting. So fuck it, five stars.”

“Has a lot of different ingredients, but they're mixed very well. You can taste the habanero, but this is balanced by quite a bit of sweetness. The combined flavor is hard to describe, but once you taste it, you don't forget it. Maybe I'm just used to spicy food, but I didn't feel that this sauce is a 5/10 in terms of spiciness. It's mild enough for me to taste it directly and the spiciness is especially tame when eaten with food. I think a spice rating of 3/10 is more accurate. In other words, if you don't handle spicy food well, don't let the store's spice rating scare you. The sauce has a good flavor and is less spicy than most hot sauces you would find at an ordinary supermarket.”
