“I absolutely love the flavor of this sauce. I put it on cauliflower wings, and it was incredible. It has a pleasant sweetness, but the flavor is much more complex than you usually find. It's not overly spicy, but it definitely has a nice kick. I highly recommend this sauce.”

“Not as hot as I thought it would be. I realize this is the milder brother of zombie but it doesn’t have much heat. It’s complex, a bit sweet but well crafted. I just don’t care for chipotle-esque flavors. This dude is pretty smoky. If you like smoky then you will probably like it. It made me want to try other torchbearer sauces. This one just isn’t for me.”

“The heat immediately hits you up front, but then builds and continues to evolve into a complex blend of subtle smokiness, with a pleasant underlying element of sweetness. Everything is nicely in balance with this one. So delicious!!”

“This sauce is absolutely amazing!!! It has such a delicious and complex flavor profile: like a rainbow exploding fireworks into my mouth. It’s incredibly versatile as well: it’s fantastic on chicken, eggs, veggies, tacos - really, you name it and it would be good. I was concerned it wouldn’t pack much heat since the first ingredient is honey but it does bring a nice burn; a bit light a sparkler, it comes fast, a hotter medium level heat, but burns out quick. It’s delicious, a new staple in my fridge, and I’m STOKED to try out the rest of the torchbearer line. Cheers!”
