“The taste isn't very interesting compared to the rest of the sauces I've had on Heatonist. It just seems like an upgraded tabasco sauce.”

“This sauce is just ok! If it wasn't for the heavy apple cider vinegar flavor, it would be REALLY good!”

“This sauce is great! It has a great flavor & is probably the best table hot sauce I've ever had. I use it to make my own wing sauce which I have been told are awesome!! My husband likes everything super hot (like legit, y'all don't have anything hot enough for him hot lol) & he loves the flavor of the classic sauce! It's good!”

“I call this sauce the nothing sauce because that's basically what you will get. The spicyness is non-existent and the texture is not good kind of chunky, but why? I recommend removing the spout cover with the tiny hole because it will more than certainly clog. This sauce did nothing for me (not to sound brash) but I think buying sweet chili sauce to be a better investment but if you are a beginner than by all means.”

“I mix this in to my eggs before they get scrambled in the pan, and once everything is cooked it does not even taste like hot sauce....all you get is an amazing garlic and pepper flavor.”

“As mentioned by others, this is light on heat but big on flavor. It can get lost if overpowered in some dishes, but the best application I've found so far is adding this to white cheddar mac and cheese. It gives it a fantastic peppery taste.”

“This sauce is easily one of the best tasting sauces I have ever tried. I don’t get the comments about heat. They never claimed it was hot. If you just want heat then get XXX.”
