I don't know why but sauce wasn't even hot as all people saying. In local shop I bought sauce with 3000 Scoville units and it was a lot hotter than the last dab.....

Bought this sauce a couple weeks ago as a birthday gift for my brother and both of us along with our close friends all shared 2 wings together. Sauce burns. It's like your saliva is gasoline and that hot sauce is a lit match. But it was a good hot sauce. I'm waiting to buy it again so we can have more of that tasty sauce. Apart from that day, we finished and enjoy that bottle through out the next couple weeks. Your doing the lord's work!

People here are enjoying a different kick to the normal Asian and Chinese Sauces , could feel an odd flavor at the beginning when you open the bottle but as someone said before, shake and let it set, the vinegar and the natural evaporation will give a bit nicer viscosity and great sauce for the lovers of spices. It is a recommended one and a delight for chicken wings or a marinated pork chops you will roast the next day, fork them well and let it get inside and feel those hooves kick you. ^_^ Love to bring you here.

First opened the bottle, and it had way to much vinegar flavor. Let it sit for a week, and since then the flavor has been great. nice balance of flavor to heat.

Hey Jeffrey, Whoa, that is very weird. It should be HIGH in pepper content but sometimes you do gotta give it a shake or two to mix everything back up since it does not have any preservatives or additives :) Glad you like it now! Stay Spicy, Krysty

When considering purchasing any sauce my singular priority is that the first ingredient listed is some kind of pepper. When I looked at the ingredients list I saw that the first two ingredients were peppers which was a big plus for me, but when I saw that it also had turmeric and mustard seed I was a bit skeptical, but I figured "what the hell, it'll probably be good". Boy, was I wrong. The smokiness (which I love) that is inherent to peppers is completely masked by the turmeric and mustard seed to the point that the flavor of the pepper is almost non-existent. The worst thing about this sauce is that it is NOT HOT. Pepper X is supposedly hotter than the Reaper; I don't know exactly what The Last Dab is supposed to rate at, but it is not hot at all. I have sauces from other companies made with peppers rated at a fraction of Pepper X and they are WAY hotter. The flavor is odd, but maybe, possibly it would make a good marinade for pork or something. Considering how many sauces I have that are much hotter and have a way better flavor profile that cost anywhere from $5 to $12 dollars less, I chalk this purchase up to a loss. I am a big fan of the show and look forward to every episode, but I won't be buying another bottle of TLD until they tweak the recipe.

Hey Dan, Oh nooo, I am so sorry to hear about your experience with the Dab! In the future, definitely hit us up via email and we are happy to talk things out with you! The Reduxx is definitely meant to be spicy - have you given it a good shake to try again? Sometimes things will settle in all natural sauces so always good to give it a shake. The sauce is meant to be used, meaning a tiny drop won't do anything, you have to use a good ol spoonful at least! The sauce should be peppery for sure, with mustard and turmeric adding to the flavor of the pepper, which does not have any natural smokiness (Pepper X that is). If you are looking for just pure heat, you can definitely find ones at a lower price point with extracts but we stick to the all natural vibes :) Please let me know if there is anything else I can do to help! Stay spicy, Krysty

This is a great hot sauce (more of a base, which is nice, because you can thin it out with butter or another hot sauce if you want to stretch the usage out of it without overwhelming your pallet.) The burn lasts about 20 min and it is all really powerfully flavorful. It isn't a burn-you-out and make you regret your choices kinda' sauce and it doesn't punish you the next day either. I won't use this often, but I do like it and I recommend it for anyone looking to do a "last dab".

Nowhere near proper hot, and nowhere near proper tasty either. Mustardy paste with surface-level Sichuan-style sting, but then... nothing. No initial flavor, and the aftertaste develops into pure bitter trash. What an incredible hype-machine piece of fakery. Almost bad enough to make me stop watching Hot Ones. Total gyp.
