Product Description

Melinda’s Naga Jolokia hot sauce is one of our top thirty best sellers here at Peppers of Key West, which leads me to one conclusion: Our customers are some sick bastards! The Naga Jolokia is more than five times hotter than a habanero and over 400 times hotter than Tabasco sauce. After all, the Naga Jolokia unseated the Red Savina as the hottest pepper in the world as recognized by The Guinness Book of World Records in 2007 and held its position there for four years. For anyone who’s keeping track, that’s over a million Scoville Units!

When not appearing in hot pepper sauce bottles on the shelves of masochists everywhere, the Naga Jolokia pepper can be found moonlighting in the preparations of hand grenades. That’s right, hand grenades. The thoughtful developers of this weapon wanted not to kill, it seems, but rather were looking for a way to temporarily blind rioters and a convenient method of removing terrorists from difficult-to-reach hideouts. Naturally, they reached for the Naga Jolokia.

The fact is that Melinda’s Naga Jolokia hot sauce is an outstanding sauce, if you’re up to withstanding a heat level of seven out of ten. It’s not for the faint of heart, but it is stunningly good. With a base of fresh carrots as well as papaya and passion fruit to give it a unique and mildly sweet flavor, all natural ingredients, and no artificial preservatives or colorings (it’s even gluten free!), this Costa Rican import has come a long way to set your palette alight. It’s even got lime juice in it, so you’ll get that little reminder of Key West in every mouth-searing bite. If you’ve ever wanted to experience the sensation of a nuclear meltdown right in your very own mouth, this little hellcat is hard to beat!
