“This sauce is such a sleeper, which is why I think they kept it with "The Classic" branding. You can put it on almost anything. The flavor profile is amazing, and the heat is too. It hits with the heat of The Last Dab - Apollo, but flavors are more nuanced. It's like sipping on a Johnnie Walker Blue or 18 year... or even a Macallan Double Cask 18yr. The heat radiates, while the taste notes dance on your palate. Absolutely superb, and just as refined as any of the whiskeys I mentioned. A supreme masterclass of a hotsauce.”

“Came with my order of the season 20 box. So I just thought it just like a mild heat. Boy was I wrong. I made the mistake of just pouring a good amount on one bite. This hits fast. But still very good.”

“It’s like if u had a Tabasco sauce car and u put twin turbos in it. Less vinegary tho and much more flavorful, sauce is very runny so be careful u don’t douse ur food unless ur about dat life! Idk if I’d say it belongs in hottest tier level.. maybe borderline possibly but it’s my favorite out of hot one’s “classic” bottles.”

“The last dab somewhat puts me off with it's signature flavor profile, while I've always loved "the classic", so this sauce is exactly what I crave when looking for superhot spice. I was so glad to see it's been extended past the special box it initially released in.”

“This thing has SERIOUS heat, but the flavor is truly fantastic. If you like your hot sauces to light your mouth ablaze, this is a must-buy. I'm always impressed when superhot hot sauces bring the flavor with them.”

“Firstly the sauce it amazing, hot and delicious, this is NOT the original classic which is incredibly mile. This one is pretty hot. HOWEVER! It also has a consistency of water, it's SUPER thin, and it's in the regular bottle so it's almost impossible to pour out just a little bit. The bottle sucks, the sauce is great, it should have had some kind of dropper top on the bottle due to it being so runny, no chunks.”
