“It's a perfect sauce for just adding a slight kick to your food without really challenging your taste buds. It's mild, but perfect for what it is.”

“Nothing to call home about but for a basic hot sauce it's not too shabby. My roommate really liked this one since it's on the milder side but I felt like it just sort of bottomed out for me. I might be a weirdo but my favorite thing I had this on was a salad with spring greens, arugula and grilled chicken.”

“Very good sauce. Pizza, wings, and everything. I wish I could find the short bottle Hot Ones sauce shown on the show.”

“Reminds me of OG Tobasco but with peppers in it. Cool consistency.”

“The heat is just enough to warm your mouth with a nice tingle which I like, maybe on par with original Louisiana or Frank's, but the overall flavor is vinegar-heavy.”

“First off I love hot sauce and I love the originals, but this one did a number on me. I just recently had the original sauce Classic since I loved the first one. That was in last month’s subscription and it gave me massive uncontrollable diarrhea. I stopped using it to give it a try to see if it was the hot sauce giving it a couple days of recovery since it felt like lava squirting out my rear. Loving the taste I wanted to try it again since it could of probably been the food but, yet again it gave me grumbles inside my stomach and the urge to use the bathroom again. Stuck on the throne I was glued for the rest of the day... Risking it a third time because it tastes amazing unfortunately it was the same result I was glued to the toilet in pain while breathing fire out of my rectum. Would definitely recommend I’m still unsure if it was the hot sauce that was my poison...... I guess I’m a slow learner.”

“Calling this "Classic" doesn't do this hot sauce justice! Amazing flavor, just a touch of heat. In my opinion the best mild hot sauce I've ever had. It blows everything else out of the water. If you're looking for a great mild hot sauce give this one a go. I promise you it's well worth it!”

“Wonderful flavor with a lingering kick, and easily my new favorite hot sauce. Perfectly balanced flavor accompanied by an enjoyable burn, this sauce leaves you yearning for more after each delicious bite. Absolutely a must have in your collection, and you'll enjoy it so much that you'll wish you bought a second bottle.”
