Carolina Reaper Hot Sauce 100ml – Extra Hot Chilli Blend

This extra hot chilli sauce blends Carolina Reaper, Trinidad Scorpion Moruga and Naga Jolokia peppers. Just a drop brings intense heat and rich flavour.

What Is Carolina Reaper Hot Sauce?

Made with 90% chillies, this red hot pepper sauce combines three exceptionally hot varieties: Carolina Reaper, Trinidad Scorpion Moruga and Naga Jolokia, also known as ghost pepper. The blend brings together their different flavours and heat sensations in a smooth, concentrated sauce for people who enjoy serious chilli heat.

After harvesting, the chillies are ground, mixed with salt and aged in barrels for 1–2 years. Vinegar is added afterwards to adjust the acidity. Made without cooking, chilli extracts, added sugar or preservatives, the sauce keeps the peppers at the heart of its flavour, with a rounded texture developed through patient ageing.

Heat level: Approximately 1,000,000+ Scoville Heat Units (SHU). This is an extremely hot sauce: start with a single tiny drop mixed thoroughly into your food, then taste before adding more.

How to Use Extra Hot Chilli Sauce

• Stir a tiny drop into a bowl of goulash, bean soup or beef stew to add concentrated chilli flavour and heat.
• Mix a drop into a bowl of plain yoghurt with lemon juice and chopped herbs for a fiery dip to serve with grilled chicken or vegetables.
• Blend a tiny amount into a marinade for chicken, pork or tofu, distributing it evenly before coating the food.
• Add a drop to a pan of tomato pasta sauce, chilli con carne or lentil stew, then stir well and taste.
• Mix a tiny drop into mayonnaise or ketchup for burgers, sandwiches or potato wedges, adjusting gradually to your preferred heat.
• For a homemade hot wing challenge, mix a single drop into melted butter or BBQ sauce before coating cooked chicken wings.

Cook’s Tip

For more even seasoning, mix your first drop with a spoonful of the sauce, broth or dip you are preparing, then stir it back into the dish. This helps spread the heat throughout the food.

Where Does It Come From?

Gábor Nagy makes this sauce at Gabko Chili in Nagymaros, Hungary, near the Danube Bend. It was the original hot pepper sauce that launched his business in 2012, growing from his interest in cultivating unusually hot chilli varieties.

Gabko grows all the chillies used in the recipe and handles the process from cultivation through to bottling. A barrel produces around 300 bottles of the 100ml hot pepper sauce, keeping production small enough to give each batch close attention.

The Red Hot Pepper Sauce earned Gold in the Extra-Hot Chilli Sauce category at the National Chilli Awards 2023. It also features in Hot Sauce: A Fiery Guide to 101 of the World’s Best Sauces by Neil Ridley and Dean Honer.
