® Brand Scorpion Pepper Sauce

Tabasco

TABASCO® has finally decided that ordinary levels of trouble aren’t enough. Scorpion chilli brings a serious jump in heat, but the sauce doesn’t simply rely on the pepper to do all the talking. Guava and pineapple bring a juicy tropical sweetness that sits surprisingly well against the sharpness of the vinegar. That fruit is useful, because the Scorpion doesn’t exactly hang around quietly. The heat builds into a proper burn, while the pineapple and guava keep the flavour bright rather than allowing it to become nothing but punishment. I’d reach for this with grilled chicken, seafood, tacos or anything with a tropical edge. It could also make a very lively addition to a marinade or fruit-based salsa. Hot enough to demand respect, fruity enough to make you forget that for a moment. Then the Scorpion reminds you.
