Bravado Spice Black Garlic Carolina Reaper Hot Sauce 148ml

This is a great sauce, which has a nice savoury flavour. There is a bit of vinegar to it but definitely not overpowering. When I first tried it, the smokey maple flavour actually hit me first. The heat is quite intense, and builds rather than just immediately setting your tongue on fire - in my opinion resulting in a tingly throat heat that puts me in mind of a Scotch whisky's warmth. Uses natural ingredients so it's not an artificial heat, and works well as a condiment or mixed in with a chilli, or whatever you fancy! Would definitely buy again! Don't use whilst drinking beer though - found that out the hard way.

This is quite possibly my fave hot sauce. Have been wanting to get some for quite a while (A fan of Hot Ones show) and it popped up on my Amazon front page. BUY IT NOW was pressed in an instant. Package arrived well protected the next day (GJ Amazon) Immediately upon opening the bottle you get a strong smell of garlic, but also a smell of vinegar (this got me worried, hate that taste in hot sauces) Thankfully upon grabbing a tea spoon full of this and giving it a taste test I was very happy. That vinegar smell thankfully didnt take over in the taste test but damn did the garlic and chilli. Very strong garlic taste and slow burning on the heat that certainly creeps up on you. I wouldnt say its the hottest sauce ive ever had, far from it infact. Though it certainly packs a punch and most importantly it tastes GREAT. Will certainly be buying again.

This sauce has an excellent heat and excellent flavour without being searingly hot, so it can be splashed onto a dish without OTT heat… well, I did… My only minor criticism of it, is that it could benefit from being a little less runny, but that is just something I think would make it even better.. it is a lovely spicy sauce 🌶️

Wasn't often I used it as a dip. Much better added to food. Adds some flavour and a ton of heat (Caution) as a dip it is extremely hot. Its better mixed in food or mixed with some salsa.

I have tried lots and lots of different chilli and pepper products and I can safely say I will buy this again. I love lots of heat and this has plenty and the black garlic is big enough to stand up and mingle wonderfully with the reaper chilli. It’s more on the liquid side rather than a thick sauce but it’s great to mix in beans or drizzle over things. 10/10 for me.

If you like to cook, this is a great addition to many recipes. The spice kick is progressive but manageable. Especially for those that like a punch in their dish. Earthy garlic and maple flavour, prior to a wave of Carolina Reaper heat. Probably the perfect balance. Which makes it a perfect addition to many a dish.

Either I'm too accustomed to hot sauces or the amount of Carolina Reaper in this is minimal. The punch isn't there, but the taste is great!

This sauce is absolutely delicious - full of flavour (most notably the black garlic and roasted garlic) with a decent kick of Reaper peppers. It’s not the hottest sauce I’ve reviewed on my YouTube channel (YerDaGaming) - certainly nowhere near Psycho Juice Ghost Pepper Extreme, Da Bomb or Dave’s Gourmet Naga Jolokia - but it definitely is one of the tastiest. Demolished a bottle on wings and had to buy several more. That says it all.

I have been buying this sauce repeatedly since 2018, and it is the only hot sauce that I use both as a topping and as an ingredient. It has flavor& heat — it is not a vinegar heavy Texas Pete or watery mild chili tasting Cholula - the black ginger seems to add umami to the heat of the Carolina reaper for me, making it finish bright and almost slightly sweet on my palate. I’ve added it to beef heavy chili recipes in the winter and cold gazpacho soups in the summer - not too much - several drops aka half teaspoon to two teaspoons does the trick in opening up the flavors. This sauce isn’t going to be for everyone because of its heat but for those of us who can handle it, it becomes a nice ‘staple’ for the kitchen akin to having salt and pepper on hand at all times.

With so many hot sauces out there it’s truly special when you find one that hits nicely! This is my new favorite. A balanced, dark, rounded, natural flavor profile and its heat is not trying to kill you. I highly recommend

Great product, nice garlic taste. Not too much burn just enough to make you huff a little! 10/10 recommend for spice lovers but not for dragons that just make it inedible spicy.

Amazon's algorithm was cooking... I was looking for a replacement for another, less available hot sauce that I like (reaper/flavorful savory component/sweet component), when I was given a 50% off flash sale on this sauce... so, I bought two bottles of it. I don't regret it. This is an umami bomb with black garlic, and a little goes a long way in terms of both flavor and heat. It's intense, tends to make the face red and sweaty, but doesn't linger long. I like to put a few dashes of it in a bowl of noodles, but beware, this is a very thin sauce with no dripper insert. It's not quite as sweet as the sauce I was replacing, and there is a little maple as advertised, but the vinegar gives a sweet/sour effect.
