hot-sauce Naga Snakebite Hot Sauces

We received our 2 bottles of Marks naga snakebite & the private reserve opened them both and tryed them.

On both you get that fruity hot pepper taste and while they both are an everyday type sauce . On flavor the regular snakebite with Onions,carrots, tomatoes, vinegar, naga morich red chillis, ginger, red bell peppers,garlic,olive oil,salt
The Private Reserve the difference between the 2 is the amount of naga's but you don't lose that great flavor of the other
ingreadients.
So on flavor I give it a 10 of 10

As for the heat this being my first sauce made with naga morich as the heat source was great. I would also say for heat I would give it a 9.5 while it is hot the flavor makes you just keep going.

Overall An Excellent sauce!

Should get mine by the end of the week

*hint hint*

But Mark's said he's v busy with the press at the moment. Cool beans! Only time I get to deal with the press is when one of my clients has killed someone.
 
When you get yours I'm sure you'll agree it is the taste in a sauce though it may be hot you still can't put it down.

Great Job!

I went straight to the Private Reserve, first. Honestly, this "sauce" is more like a pepper mash- not a bad thing at all. The peppers are the star and the seasonings are like a bit player with a 30-second role in an hour-long movie. Heat level... more like a 6 or a 7. You can eat this stuff all day in blissful agony without grabbing a stick of butter to medicate your mouth (try doing that with Blair's Jersey Death!). All-in-all, this is a fantastic effort by The Chilieman and crew and look forward to his later offerings as well!
 
I agree the heat level was a bit of a let down for the hype of this chile. But as you know heat is relative what is hot to one is not hot to another Still thought it was a very good sauce.

True enough. I'll be curious to see how toxic my Jolokia plants will be in July and August as a comparison. That said, I'm really tempted to dump a whole bottle of this stuff into a pot of chili. Boy, would it taste great:fireball:

Also remember, that the SHU listed is merely for the hottest Naga tested. If Naga's follow a normal (bell curve) distribution for capsacinoid concentration, then the average Naga might be on the order of 0.9-1 million SHU...and once you start making sauce (dilution) your heat level is going to go down.
 
pure heat is from extracts, remember that this is a sauce and isn't supposed to have intolerable heat - colour, texture, flavour and aroma are also important.
 
Just arrived this morning. Don't think the heat level is a let down, but I can see what you mean: If you want something that will really cause you immense pain, then perhaps it's not your thing.

But who wants that? Really? If you want the pain to feel alive, use a branding iron on your tongue or something. If you want a hot sauce that it proper hot and leaves a tingle, this rocks.

And remember, people: WE are a minority. To the tabasco swilling masses who regard that sauce as the hottest thing they're likely to come across, Snake bite will be regarded as insane.

rant over. As you were.

Actually, I didn't know what to expect from the sauce when I tried it for the first time. I love the fact that I can use this sauce for everything and not risk injury.
 
Hi Guys,

Thanks for taking the time to comment on these sauces. Im a complete novice at sauce making and your feedback and comments are invaluable.

Ive tried to get the balance I can (from my limited experience) between a good level of heat and a nice flavour. I will be working on batch two over the next few weeks and am thinking of adding a fruit to the mixture to play with the tastes. Mangoes were in the original recipie but they cost a fortune when buying in bulk.

What would you guys like to see in the next sauce? How about Pineapple. I think the sweetness might work well with the fruity Nagas? These Naga sauces are a bit of fun and very much a team effort. They are made for you guys and after your input.

Yes :)
Seriously, it's an excellent idea. One of the most mind-blowing sauces I've ever had used carrot juice to bring out the fruitiness of the habaneros.
PS- I wouldn't be afraid to season it a little more as well (NOTE: All opinions expressed by me are not the opinions of this blog or its' sponsors :))
 
Just wanted to say that I am a big fan of the Naga Morich if this is typical of what they taste like. I have already almost finished my first bottle and I have had it less than a week. It is a little thicker than most of the sauces I eat, but I like that with this sauce as you really get nice big pieces of pepper. You have really hit a home run in your first attempt here Mark!
 
I agree with the heat Kato. I made a one off batch for a standard bottle with 10 naga's, salt, and white vin... I thought it was so so...but people love it. I think it's just the great taste of the pepper...what a great pepper, yet the heat is not as hot as you would think...nothing like when you pop a pod in your mouth! ha

Rock on,

Primo
