El Yucateco Black Label Reserve Hot Sauce -120ml

Good spices for every day and the flavour is superb. Smokey

One of the best brand of hot sauces I've ever had. It isn't overly hot and adds a depth of flavour that is synonymous with the Yutucan region.

Sweet, then smokey, then a blast of heat from the habanero. If you like a smokey hot sauce, this is worth a try.

Tasted like a mouthful of dirt, went straight in the bin

I've just received a bottle of this having not tried it before. It's a very robust and fragrant sauce, which I imagine would accompany central and south American cuisines very well. However, I am a little surprised that the words "smoky" or "perhaps "chipotle" don't appear in the product's descriptions online (at least where I had looked). There is a very intense aroma and flavour of smoke to this sauce, as if it contained chipotle peppers, although they are not listed in the ingredients.On the heat side, it's probably a little hotter than Tobasco, but is by no means extreme or challenging on that front. However, it has a very unique, smoky habanero flavour profile and I'm sure that once I find the right dishes for it to accompany, my rating of the sauce may improve a little. I gave it 4 stars, but that's probably a little more generous than a true reflection of my opinion, 3 stars seemed unfairly low though. I'd say 6.5 to 7 out of 10 is more like it!

Mix this with avocado to put onto burritos, excellent. On it's own it tates like a charred burnt mess but mixed with other sauces etc it's great !

odd taste, but im a chilli head so will use it in casseroles etc

We discovered this sauce while on holidays in Mexico and it has been our favourite since. Ideal for fajitas night, it has a smoky flavour and has a kick without being too spicy. I just wish I had thought early to check if Amazon was selling it!
