“The taste is only sour. Didn´t like it at all. Found that a few drops in the not to hot (Norwegian) taco sauce works well.”

“This has to be the hottest sauce I have had, but it's flavor is too peppery for my taste almost like ground pepper flavor. Doesn't linger as long as the last dab. My advice it's closest competition is the Puckerbutt Chipotle Express and that packs flavor where this is lacking. Hmm... Going to try something and mix the 2 sauces together and see if that does the trick.”

“Holy crap, this is great. I don't want to eat any more but at the same time I do. My intestines don't thank me but my brain does, and yours will too!”

“I'm a hot sauce freak. Pretty sure my blood is 98% capsaicin lol. This stuff is so ridiculously delicious that the heat in your mouth is worth it. You can feel it in your gut. Still worth it. Been up all night with a flaming bunghole, so I'm questioning my thoughts on if it's still worth it. I like my sauces HOT and if they are severe along with excellent flavor, I'm sold! Man..I wish I could eat this again but I'm not sure I can do this to my GI tract and toilet again. But the flavor is SO GOOD I'll probably be in this same situation repeatedly until the bottle is empty lol.”

“This is by far the hottest thing I've ever eaten *initially*, but it goes away very quickly to be replaced by a lasting, but manageable smooth afterburn. This is a sauce I can eat on anything if I wanted to because it takes you to the brink of manageable without ever tipping over! Such a well-designed sauce, and I'll definitely be buying some of the others if they're as masterfully crafted as this one!!”

“I was expecting this to be mind blowing hot, but it actually had a nice heat to it. The heat pretty much stayed in the mouth and didn’t burn my throat. Honestly doesn’t feel as hot as the Constrictor... but that’s another review!”

“I was a little worried when I saw it had pepper distillate in it. I have tried hot sauces in the past that had a TON of heat and had a chemical taste. Gladly that is NOT the case with this sauce. I really enjoyed the flavor, and the heat is really great. I put it inside sandwiches and quesadillas and spread it pretty thin on the bread. It's still really hot even with just a little bit in your food. This bottle should last me quite a while even if I use it all the time.”
