Well I’m finally at a point where I think my sauce is ready for prime time. So I guess that means I need reviewers to cut it down to size and send me back to the drawing board. I just started my company and am trying to finalize 4 sauces. I need fellow chileheads to provide honest and detailed feedback on each sauce and rank them. I have a 5th sauce that is a duplicate of another and I must have added too many habs and it was hotter than I wished. I will include that bottle as a bonus.
I have checked into shipping and it looks like the cheapest option is USPS medium flat rate box. So I ask that anyone wishing to participate send a 10 spot back in the mail to cover most of the shipping cost. I’m okay working off a gentleman’s agreement. We’ll call it a digital handshake.
For feedback I have a Word form to complete. It contains radio buttons for rating the sauce on various properties, such as too hot, too sweet, flavor, consistency, etc. There is unlimited room for freeform comments. Of course, anyone is free to send back additional feedback in other mediums as well. All I ask is that feedback not be posted publically. I guess I’m just not comfortable with that yet
I will also provide a list of ingredients and a flavor profile. These are all natural, preservative-free sauces. They are medium heat and targeted to the average chilehead. I would rank them between a 2-2.5 on a scale of 1 to 5. No superhots yet, but they will come
. Here is a general description of the sauces and ingredients. It is not a full ingredient list but enough to get a feel for the sauce:
Rio Grande Mud
Red Thunder (and RT XHOT)
Mustard Bomb
Island Sunshine
So in short, you provide feedback and $10 and get 5 rockin’ bottles of hot sauce. If you are cool w/ this arrangement, please PM me. I will take the first 10 or so responses.
Here are some picks:
