“This unholy Trinity of hot sauces isn't for the faint of heart or the weak of stomach. When the original Last Dab was unveiled 7 years ago, it was made to be hot but still flavorful, and it introduced the world to Pepper X. The original was so good, one year later, Smokin' Ed Currie doubled down and made The Last Dab Reduxx with TWO kinds of Pepper X. That raised the bar on how The Last Dab can top itself. One year after The Last Dab Reduxx was released, Smokin' Ed tripled down and created The Last Dab XXX, which has three kinds of Pepper X — mustard, chocolate, and peach. XXX was so nefarious, that it was featured on Hot Ones: The Game Show. I thought that this was the best Last Dab yet...until The Last Dab Apollo was unveiled in 2020. Smokin' Ed crossbred his two hottest peppers, the Carolina Reaper and Pepper X, to create a capsicum that's hotter than the ninth circle of Dante's Inferno. The Last Dab Apollo is just pure Apollo pepper heat. It comes in three forms: fresh Apollo pepper mash, dried Apollo pepper powder, and Apollo pepper distillate mixed with vinegar. The Last Dab Apollo held the top spot on Hot Ones for 8 seasons, until the fifth iteration of The Last Dab was revealed three months ago. The Last Dab Xperience uses the same process that The Last Dab Apollo was created: using fresh Pepper X mash, dried Pepper X powder, and Pepper X distillate to create a sauce that is at least 91% Pepper X. The Last Dab Xperience is the top of the top if you are a chili head or an absolute sadomasochistic sicko. The Last Dab Xperience has the flavor profile of an India Pale Ale: floral, a little bit bitter, but the heat comes at you like a Canelo Alvarez punch — you won't see it coming! This just might be the best $50 you can spend here on Heatonist, if you have the cojones to try all three Last Dabs.”

“These sauces are super spicy but packed with flavor, usually lose the flavor with so much heat but I’ve tried these on several different dishes and it’s amazing every time.”

“Super bitter without good flavor. Mixed these with other sauces to add heat and improve taste.”

“Received my order on December 13 with a broken bottle inside, took a pic and emailed them right away. Now its December 30th and i havent heard a single thing back. This doesnt happen anywhere else that I order hot sauces from. Yet i've received 2 boxes with broken bottles from here.”

“I Love all 3 of these sauces. Not disappointed in the slightest, but I was somewhat surprised that Xperience didn't send me into a panic, or curl me up into the fetal position, crying in the floor. It was actually manageable heat that didn't linger too long. It did give me instant hiccups, like my esophagus was saying f-you. Apollo seemed a tad hotter and lingered at least twice as long. Now XXX, this is a magical sauce, my fav of the three. Amazing flavor, burned at both ends, lingered about 20-30 afterward, and gave me the tingle-sweats. These were much appreciated gifts that were shared with me. Will buy again for myself.”

“I got these for my brother to entertain myself. Spicy foods make him hiccup, and I can say his hiccups are plentiful.”
