Wicked Reaper Carolina Reaper Hot Sauce, 5 oz – Extreme Heat

A 10/10. Maybe a 20/10. Great flavor; finally some genuine heat, but not, “burn your face off” heat. I’ve bought 5 bottles, and intend to keep them coming. A little goes a long way. So glad to have found this flavorful sauce.

Besides the fact that Carolina Reaper at one time was the hottest pepper in the world somewhere around 2 million Scoville units, this is a very tasty hot sauce if you like it really hot. But use it with great care extreme care. I put five drops in the pot of soup I was brewing and it was almost too hot. But being from the Chinense family, there is a fruitiness to this chile that is almost instantly overwhelmed by the Heat. I have become accustomed to the heat somewhat. For goodness sakes don't ever touch this pepper and get juice on your hands and do anything that involves touching anywhere on your body with those hands. Soap does not remove this you just have to wait for it to oxidize and go down by itself. If you're going to eat part of this which I do not recommend, chew it up chew it good before you swallow it. If you take a big bite and then swallow all of that odds are you're going to throw up. All in all highly recommended if you can stand the heat.

This stuff is hot, but oh so delicious! One of the best hot sauces I've tasted in a very long time! This one is now in my top 5 favorites in terms of flavor!

I thought this is hotter and taste better than the Elijah Carolina Reaper! It didn’t have as much other spices to enhance the hotness that the Elijah brand had! But again, it’s not as Hot as Carolina Reaper really is! I bought this one, Lola’s and Elijah’s they all advertised as Carolina Reaper but none is as Hot as Carolina Reaper truly is! So if you’re like me and is looking for a really hot pepper sauce and find one please let me know! I usually would buy it raw and make my own! But the farmer had issues with his crops this year and I didnt get my supply! Looking for Carolina Reaper not just a tiny bit with mix with mostly other peppers and spices!

Most hot sauces labeled with Carolina reaper peppers contain very little of the actual pepper, and the end result is a mildly spicy sauce, but this definitely contains Carolina reaper. It has a decent taste, but the spice is great, buildable, and lasts for several minutes. Any hot head will enjoy this!

Where to begin? I suppose the first thing I'd like to say is that I wish the scoville unit rating for this sauce was for the actual sauce and not just the peppers used to make it. If I had to guess I would say this sauce is probably around 100,000 scovilles. Now don't get me wrong, this sauce is still hot. It gives you a nice burn in the back of your throat and your entire mouth in general. Your sinuses will run. This is a very high heat sauce but imo a mostly habenero sauce like Iguana is hotter overall. Now that's not to knock this sauce. This is good stuff. The flavor is insane in this sauce and it really is a great tasting hot sauce. This would be the perfect hot wing sauce if you typically eat hot sauce on wings. I must say that I did expect this sauce to be much hotter than it is, so I am a bit disappointed there. However, I'm still giving this 5 stars purely because of flavor. I haven't had a hot sauce that tasted this good in a long time and I'm glad I picked this up.

This is just a sauce with absolute HOT AS HELL HEAT. This sauce does not have that good of a flavor and will just burn. Definitely do not recommend this to anyone who has not tried "weaker" (so to speak) hot sauces. The scoville rating is really 2.2million which is only 2.8million less than OC (pepper) spray. This is good on crackers, pizza, etc. but it is very hot plain. I would not recommend eating this plain until you have tested (eaten) a LITTLE on food. Would make a great gift to any pepperhead out there. I am totally in love with hot stuff even though my stomach isn't. Lastly, please make sure you have water, milk, and ice at hand if you plan on eating a lot of this. Label says heat lasting 5 minutes, but with way more than a serving size it lasts 30min to and hour.

As long as you're prepared for it, this stuff is Amazing! I usually add it to other lesser hot sauces to make a blend or mix some in chili etc. At 2.2 Million Scoville Units, This is not for someone who thinks Crystal hot sauce or Frank's Red Hot (which I love BTW) is hot. When you first get it you'll probably put a big drop on your tongue to check it out, and you will feel like Godzilla when you do. Even drinking a cold beer instantly, the burn stayed with me about 15 minutes...Fun stuff!
