Compare it with the actual scorpion pepper I grew in my garden. Ate it because at first I thought it was habanero (still a respectable 100K Scoville but I knew how to handle that). Heat came slowly, and even though I mixed it with the fatty meat I ate, which diluted the capsaicin, I spent the next half-hour cleansing my palate and tongue with buttermilk, then my stomach felt a little off for a few hours. But I'd do it again; in fact I did it with ghost pepper (1M Scoville), and the palate cleansing phase only lasted about 10 minutes. Luckily (or not), my Carolina Reaper plants didn't make it to the garden, all of them died before that for one reason or another.

The sauce may be less spicy but is constant throughout and doesn't give you breaks, or, should I say, literal breathing room. Also, I have yet to find a hot sauce or a hot pepper pack that I like.

Parting thoughts: keep a jug of liquid water-soluble fat (milk, heavy cream, buttermilk or even warm butter at hand for emergencies. Don't attempt douse the pepper heat with water, soft drinks or beer (maybe Everclear would help in this regard, but it creates other issues), it will become worse.

Spicy doesn't mean good. Does it actually taste good or do you just taste a burning sensation that's so strong it hides the flavor of what you're eating?
I like the smoky taste of habaneros, for example, but you need to build up to the heat level and take measures not to be overwhelmed. Even more so for scorpion, what I tasted is fruity, but it doesn't last much before the Scoville train comes out of the tunnel and you cannot get out of the tracks. I read the Carolina Reaper tastes like candy, almost like licorice, for a few seconds, then come several hours of literal pain.Not sure if it is worth it

But you are right in one more aspect you may not have intended: the Tabasco taste will hide the original fruity pepper flavor. Short of tasting thin strips of the actual pepper, chewed slowly toghether with food that contains at least some fat, there is practically no way to experience that.

There may be pepper flavors I don't like, regardless of heat. For me cayenne, while I don't hate it, is not a favorite. The irony is that the cayenne pepper plants are prolific and I have a lot of them. I should have enough time to dry or pickle some of them.

"Smoky taste of habaneros?" That's not "smoke," that's dirt: scoop up a handful of garden dirt, heat it with a blowtorch, and stick some on your tongue: same flavor. Habaneros taste like dirt. Always have.

But then, I may be biased. The real question is: "How many more gallons of pureed guavas and pineapple do I need to add this to in order to make a palatable salsa? 🤣

I usually add a drop or two mixed in Ketchup for an elevated Burger & Fries.

This sauce is the real deal. 🔥

They do taste smoky, and it has nothing to do with dirt. You should try it, there are versions of habanero with heat drastically pared down yet the smokiness in the taste remains.

As I said before, I don't do sauces. Tried them, never clicked with me. Guava and pineapple ? Pass. I prefer the fruity flavor of the hot peppers themselves. The added flavors in this sauce makes it out to be a hot pepper sauce for people who don't like hot peppers or never had the chance to try the real thing.

I can't find it in my local stores. When I have, it's been more expensive than this.

This is one of the better Tabasco branded sauces they offer. I keep it on hand all the time, it is a hotter sauce, so if you're used to red-hot or regular tabasco, expect this to be a step up.

One of my faves. Hard to come by at the stores near me so I keep a few bottles on hand, 2.40 is about right.

I might just try this. For what it's worth, this is a trick I learned. There used to be a BBQ place in my city where the guy who owned it was kind of famous for making some of the hottest sauces in the world. He had been on national news a couple of times. A bunch of us used to eat lunch there sometimes and he liked to experiment on his regulars. Once, he gave me something that actually had me light headed it was so intense. He brought out a cup of warm but not real hot water and had me sip it. It sounds crazy but it worked. He explained that the hot water dissolved the oils quicker. Might not work for everybody.

Very spicy but flavorful unlike most hot sauces. Also it doesn't have the vinegar smell that come with Tobasco.

Beware, this is NOT your normal "tabasco" sauce where you douse liberally on top of eggs or whatever. Be VERY mindful about how much you put on if you're not used to heat. ALSO DO NOT TOUCH YOUR EYES OR OTHER "SENSITIVE" BODY PARTS IF YOU ACCIDENTALLY TOUCH THE SAUCE. You have been warned.

Ingredients list is actually very good for a cheap sauce. Ordered the 5 oz for $5.90 because I've spent way more on way worse sauce
