“Don't buy this one for heat, there isn't much. Less so than Tabasco, but so much more flavorful. Buy it because it's straight up delicious and will elevate even the most pedestrian pizza or scrambled eggs to a whole new level. Excellent on just about anything, with a hint of spicy heat that never overpowers, just compliments, and will have you coming back for more. Delicious sauce.”

“I've seen this hot sauce on YouTube "Hot Ones", and was really excited by the whole concept of the show. Since most guests have praised this hot sauce from the beginning, I thought I'd give it a try to start my way into the world of hot sauces. Unfortunately, I'm not really a fan of any vinegary sauces, I instantly disliked the taste of it. I should have known since I don't really like Tabasco especially due to this circumstance. I'm sure it's an awesome sauce if you like vinegar (or at least can blind this out), I'm afraid it's just not for me.”

“Sometimes, you just need more flavor than heat. The Classic is perfect for those situations. Very mild sauce with lots of flavor, this sauce is great for chili dogs, eggrolls, pulled pork sliders, and chicken wings. Makes a great substitute for hotter sauces!”

“it is at best okay. if I wanted to do a classic it would be the classic garlic fresno edition as it is very much worth the cash. I put it on the back shelf.”
