Joe Hotter makes hot sauce that is flavor first, with heat in a close second. Hotter Sauce never aims to totally burn your mouth, but leave a pleasant, spicy sensation that builds as you use more sauce. Our hottest sauce would be Thai-napple, followed by Honey Habanero, Slammin' Serrano, and lastly Pepper Blossom.

Before you open the seal: virtually indefinitely, so long as you don't leave it in direct sunlight for several hours. After you open the bottle, put it in the fridge and it will last a year or so. Our 5 oz bottles have a label with two dates on them. The top date displays the best by date. The bottom date is the batch date. Because of Hotter Sauce's thickness, we think it's best enjoyed when it has been refrigerated.

Thai-napple and Pepper Blossom are both fermented. Honey Habanero and Slammin' Serrano are cooked sauces.

Please inspect your order once you receive it and contact us immediately if the item(s) is damaged or if you received the wrong item(s) so we can evaluate the issue and make it right! ​ You can contact us for any questions at JoeHotter@hottersauces.com.

Pepper Blossom is made with Cardamom that has been packaged in a facility that also processes Tree Nuts, Wheat, Peanuts, and Soybeans. Sourcing fresh Cardamom is in the cards for Pepper Blossom soon. If this section is missing next time you visit, you are completely in the clear.

We ship all over North America with plans to ship globally in the near future.

Hotter Sauce is not vinegar forward, but it is a necessary ingredient for shelf life. Various vinegars help compliment the flavor in each sauce, but it is never a dominant ingredient like it is for most big brand sauces you see in supermarkets.

As a small business, we strive to ship out same or next-day to our customers. However, sometimes shipping delays occur, if you have questions about your specific order, kindly reach out to Joehotter@hottersauces.com for details. We use USPS Priority Mail or UPS if we find better rates.
