Okay. I finally got to try this one over the weekend. Very interesting. To me there are two basic (I know I'm over-simplifying here) types of sauces: those that feature the pepper varietal as the main flavor, and those that are a blend of seasonings, creating a unique flavor, with the pepper incorporated into the mix.
This sauce falls into category 2. I can only think of one other sauce as different as Island Sauce, and I am not sure if they are making that one any more (shame).
This sauce boasts a Caribbean flavor. It doesn't disappoint. I would take it a step further, though, and say that it is also remniscent of the flavors of India and Thailand. I found this curious, since curry isn't listed in the ingredients. The overall flavor, though, seems to lean towards a curry type flavoring.
This sauce would go well on a jerk chicken sandwich, but would also compliment Pad Thai, or similar dishes. While not the hottest of sauces available (my wife tells me this is true of all but the hottest) it more than makes up for it in the flavor department. It's not all about heat anyway.
Great sauce, Mick. I will be a repeat customer. Great service, as well.
