The most important thing to know about this product is that it is a hot sauce that uses chile pepper extract (capsaicin). Whatever they are using for extract is extremely hot. I've read that it's ghost pepper extract but have not been able to confirm. Either way it is very hot and should be respected. Extract sauces are much different than sauces that only use the whole peppers though I have had some incredibly hot non-extract sauces as well. This sauce however is hotter than anything I've ever had including eating whole ghost peppers right off the plant.I confirmed with someone at grinders that when they used to make this sauce in house before hiring a company to produce it for them that they cooks used to wear respirators and hazmat suits while making it. All it takes is a small taste and you will understand why.If you are going to use this hot sauce, use it very sparingly. You only need a small drop in any dish and it will get the job done. For many, it will still be too much to handle.My first time trying this I took a drop that was probably a generous1/8 to a quarter of a teaspoon on a corn chip. The taste was a sweet and smokey BBQ sauce style taste that only lasted a second or two before the nuclear meltdown started. Immediate and near unbearable heat to the mouth quickly leading to the throat and everything in its path. The heat from this sauce is relentless and keeps building and building for quite some time after consumption. Nose runs were uncontrollable, I broke out in a sweat, eyes watering and my ears were clogged, which actually lead to ringing in the ears. I thought I was going to hyperventilate for a moment. This is what I was looking for. Something that can barely be handled.The flavor is great for the brief moment you can actually taste it and on a scale from 1 to 10, 10 being the hottest, this sauce is a 20. This is not a prank sauce. It is a sauce intended for serious heat seekers. All others should avoid it.
