Genetikx pepper sauce

These chiles were grown and left to age since 2015. Finally got around to processing today. Have a look friends!

Just tried the pineapple version on a piece of cold pizza. The garlic and onion aroma was more pronounced then I would have imagined, I've never messed with many other sauces besides Tabasco or my own. I grew up on Tabasco. The first taste I had didn't seem too hot so I put quite a few more drops on the pizza, and then even a few more on the crust cause it still hadn't really hit me yet. Then it really kicked in, I had to have a couple glasses of milk!
 
It's really good, makes me wanna pull some pods out of the freezer so I can start a ferment. I need to order woozies but I'm cheap and was wanting to spend more like 50 cents per bottle. I guess you have to buy a thousand of em to get a good deal though

Shipping was 40 bucks for me for 5 cases  :tear:
 
So added up that's about $1.08 per woozy with lid.  Certainly not the cheapest, but not as bad as some quotes I've seen on amazon or ebay.
 
I'm usually ordering 10-30 cases at a time, so I save on shipping w Fillmore.  :)

I used about a tbs when i had the jumbo baked chicken breast. It was no problem dipping it into the sauce. Tongue was really hot but not like eating a fresh hab. 15min later the tongue was still tingling but the rest of the mouth/throat burn was gone.
 
My brother tried it but ran for the milk almost immediately.
Lol, to your brother he's gotta build his tolerance a bit! That caribe red isn't all that hot haha
 
I got a family member that works at uline. I can get 5oz woozys with tops for 25 cents each. Plus, no shipping :) Hard to beat that deal unless you buy in extremely large quantities

Just had some of genetikx sauce on some breakfast burritos, an it was the bomb. I can definitely taste the garlic and onion. I've used probably half of the one with pineapple already, haven't cracked the other yet. Thanks again for the sauce! It's getting used for sure
That's awesome Andy, glad you're enjoying it.

Mike, your review can be "dia de los muertos is super hot. Can't taste any real flavor" lol. That's gotta be the hottest sauce I've made

I'll try my best to get into that one today, man! Sorry this is taking so long! Got pretty hectic last week with the holidays (traveling a little), and now I've got 7 new bottles of sauce on my kitchen counter, waiting to be tasted/reviewed, lol. Yours will be first, I promise! :)
 
Here you go, dude :cool:

I like the very straightforward, "right to the point" label, but I do wish the pic of the pepper were a little brighter. The sauce itself has a beautiful burnt orange color, with a very nice, silky consistency. I heard a very refreshing audible "hiss" upon opening, which ensured that it was bottled properly, and it had a good seal. Absolutely fantastic aroma coming out of the bottle, with the peppers and mango out in the forefront, and a little bit of onion and garlic in the background. Once poured onto a spoon, you can really pick up a hint of the smoked onions. Consistency is nearly perfect. Not too runny, and flows smoothly out of the bottle.

Now, the taste test...... (full teaspoon) very sweet upfront from the mango, with just a touch of vinegar, followed by the delicious flavor of the peppers and a touch of carrot. Then, just when you think you're safely enjoying the flavor of the peppers in there, it puts your tongue in a chokehold and starts kicking like a three legged ninja, lol. It's ALL tongue burn, nowhere else; not on my lips or in the back of my throat. I can't remember exactly what pods went into this sauce, but if I were a betting man, I'd definitely say 7 Pots. I literally feel like I have a pair of vise grips on my tongue. My nose isn't running, but I've got some sweat building up under my eyes, and my eyes are definitely watering a bit.

It's been about 20 minutes, and I've eaten a bacon egg and cheese on a toasted bagel (with more sauce, of course), and had a big glass of milk. My tongue still feels like it got hit with some coarse sandpaper, hahaha (but in a GOOD way!)

The sauce is fantastic, Ryan. I just wish there was a little more of a time lag in between tasting all the flavors and the heat. It tasted great for a good 2 1/2 seconds before the heat completely took over, haha. I'm guessing that's from the type of pods used (it doesn't say on the label). Delicious sauce, but definitely not for the faint of heart ;)

Thanks again for sharing it with me, man. I really enjoyed it and appreciate it!
