I don't know if any of you have been watching "Superhot: The Spicy World of Pepper People" on Disney+ but the Johnny Scoville chap that features on it has seemingly had a bottle of "The Last Dab Experience" (91% Pepper X) tested and it's come back at only just over 61,000 SHU.

It's £50 a bottle at my local place, I'm glad I've waited to try it in a challenge instead of buying it.
Now the Superhot program has opened me up to a whole new world that seems at odds with the Hot Ones path and I suspect there's a competitive element here but if its true 61,000 is woeful for what's supposed to be one of the hottest out there.

Da Bomb seems to mess everyone up way more than the last one. Be it the last day or the new one. I have a bottle.of Da Bomb and it's not pleasant https://youtu.be/dTtk_RzpKvo?si=DsvHSvJ9CQxP4C3q

Yeah, I have a few that are extract based and they hit in a completely different way to to hot natural ones, it's like your body responds in a different way to the perceived attack.UTH said:
Oooooohhhh, very interested in this!
I have their "Gold Dust - Fatalli Chilli" one and it's great to add a bit of volume to dishes that might not be as welcoming to a sauce. It's quite lemony though so this one should be a bit more of an all-rounder.They do a habenero and wild garlic salt too apparently but my local place doesn't stock it.

Struggling a bit with so many hot sauces just being overwhelming heat and no real flavour!
I was lucky enough to get some great hot sauces for Xmas, local ones from the Devon chilli farm too, but I’ll
Be honest, they are just heat and chilli,
I find myself reaching for the franks and cholula WAY more than I do all of these artisan hot sauces, just love the flavours as much as the heat.
Franks jalapeño is good and very limey
cholula chipotle is also great
Any sauces you can recommend with that in mind?

Too many hot sauces are just chilli burn and that’s dull to me. I avoid anything with skull and cross bones on them, anything that says extreme etc. I like my chilli sauces to have flavour and heat. I like a range of heat I don’t always want to sweat or make my nose run. It really does seem that a lot of the small producer stuff is a competition to burn the most.
My cousin makes some really good hot sauces which don’t burn your face off.

The Devon Chilli Farm Cherry Bomb and Peruvian sauces are absolutely lovely, not very hot but delicious. I was lucky enough to get some great hot sauces for Xmas, local ones from the Devon chilli farm too, but I’ll

I find the extreme one tastes nice before it starts to burn you.

I've got some of Pucker Butts sauces on the go now, not the one you mention but I've got several of the others which contain Pepper X. https://youtu.be/dTtk_RzpKvo?si=DsvHSvJ9CQxP4C3q

Whilst I can't say anything about the SHU ratings I can say it's some of the hottest sauce I've ever tried BUT also some of the most delicious. Even the really hot ones, you can taste all the ingredients.
Found in TK Maxx of all places by the Mrs

Looking on the website https://www.quintadavo.com/ they do tons of things

This brand is banging. The original peri peri and the hot peri peri is also pretty damn good.This stuff is absolutely lovely, nice bit of heat but the flavour is amazing

I have the Sambal but I find it too salty and citrusy for my taste.
A new "dust" for the make ordinary food spicy collection...
Ingredients: Garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, mustard, chilli powder, Pepper X
I've only tried a light coating of it so far but it's got a nice heat and plenty of garlic. I suspect the "pepper x" content is microscopic and the "chilli powder" is doing the non-marketing effort but it's got a nice slow burn that builds quietly.
I tried some ZuZu 7-Pot while I was there, a really unique taste, sambuba, licorice, fennel, quite a sweet "oriental" taste but very pleasant.

After reading this I popped down to my local TK Max. Lo and behold they have one bottle....of the PiriPiri Turbo I have the Sambal but I find it too salty and citrusy for my taste.
A bargain at £1.99
