Dirty Dick's Hot Sauce might be an agressive name for a sauce, but it's one of the most delicious ones out there. The bottle says it all: hot pepper sauce with a tropical twist. It gets that twist from the mangos, pineapple and bananas. The perfect balance between flavor and heat. This hot sauce is also known from the YouTube show Hot Ones.

This Heartbeat Scorpion Hot Sauce is the hottest and newest sauce of Canada's most popular hot sauce brand. They used 3 peppers to make it their spiciest ever: Habaneros, Chipotle and ofcourse the Trinidad Scorpion. This creates a flavor in which the peppers take center stage. The beets give it a sweet touch at the very beginning, but that disappears quickly to make room for the heat of the peppers, the smokyness of the Chipotle and the tartness of the vinegar. Another great sauce from Heartbeat that goes well with just about anything that can use some extra heat!

This Karma Cosmic Disco Hot Sauce is a mix of two other great sauces: the Karma Cosmic Dumpling and the Karma Scorpion Disco. In terms of flavour, that can also be tasted, because the best of both is reflected in it. The first thing you taste is a combination of tamari and citrus (umami & sour), followed by the sweetness of the brown sugar and the intense heat of Trinidad Scorpion, Ghost Pepper & Jalapeño peppers. Delicious with your favourite Asian dishes, such as teriyaki or as a glaze with duck. That is if you can handle the heat, because this sauce was on wing #7 on Hot Ones (season 19) for a reason.

Don't be fooled by the list of ingredients and the Scoville score (135.000) of Da Bomb Beyond Insanity hot sauce. It might seem that this sauce won't be too hot, compared to sauces with hotter peppers in it, but it truely is an absolute bomb. We'd rather call this an experience sauce, which you have to try once. The flavour isn't great (we'll be honest about that), but the heat is something else.
