I might get dragged for this, but this sauce is legitimately hot and I think everyone on here who says oh it’s not that bad or I put that on everything are full of it and trying to flex their spice ego in a hot sauce group.

It’s a slow burn that takes a bit to kick in and then forever to go away. First time I tried it was straight up and didn’t taste anything… tried some more… still not much… a few seconds later the extreme burn kicked in.
I found it’s actually decent when adding to other sauce in your dish though… adds a good steady heat if you get the amount right.

I just got a bottle of this, put a bb sized dollop on a piece of hard boiled egg, then made this mistake of placing that piece of egg in such a way that the bb sized bit of sauce was directly on my tongue. The heat actually died fairly quickly, but it felt like I just burned a small hole in my tongue for about 2 hours.
This sauce is no joke. Be wary.

The pepper x one is hotter. Anyone that says any of the dabs aren’t hot is a hater.

The thing is that it’s a slow burn that compounds on itself, so one bite is not that hot but the next 4 or 5 bites all make it hotter.

I do put it on everything but I definitely won’t use it like I would use franks or tapatio. You only need a little to really feel it.

I didn’t love this one. I do really like the last dab XXX. Pepper X is a tasty super hot.

Of course it’s hot, but reddit is a space where there is a high concentration of experts or high-level individuals in any given interest’s subreddit. So you’re gonna get those people who say “eh, butt-chugged 2 bottles and dumped one in my eye for good measure, didn’t feel a thing”

Good stuff. This is my favorite to put in cheap ramen.

First week of using it, it was scorching, but it was the hottest thing I’ve had. Now I put it on everything lol. Still hot but doesn’t kill me now that I’m use to it. Goes good on lots.

This is a hot sauce subreddit. We are insane weirdos. That sauce is absolutely hot. It’s just not really crazy hot. Personally I have crazy hot sauces but I don’t exactly enjoy them as much as find ways to use them. They don’t just go on a taco… they get added to a soup, stew, chili, etc. And of course pulled out when someone claims they can handle spice.
The last dab sauces are about at that limit for crazy hot sauce people. You find it too hot, but people that enjoy hotter sauces than you might actually plop that directly onto a taco. It’s not really a flex… they just have an insane tolerance you don’t have. You can build to that if you want, but honestly just don’t. Habanero is plenty hot and you won’t kill friends that come over to eat your food.

I swear I’m not doing the “tough guy wearing a sleeveless shirt in winter saying it isn’t even cold out” thing.
My bottle of Apollo was not hot. I have PLENTY of hot sauces that are too fucking hot to enjoy. This didn’t even register on the Richter scale, to the point where I assumed I just got a dud bottle. I wonder if some batches were duds? Idk
Shit wasn’t hot

It’s a dry heat.

The price keeps me from trying it out

This sauce gave me and the wife PTSD

My brother and I tried Apollo with the frozen boneless they sold, and it fucked us up for a sec. We never back down from a heat challenge either

I’m not a heavyweight when it comes to hot. I like spicy food but I would never do the one chip challenge or the gummy bear or any of that other stuff.
The Apollo sauce is hot, but it’s not as hot as I thought it would be. I can actually load it up on food a little bit with no problem. I also really enjoyed the flavor and went through this bottle of hot sauce faster than I go through just about any other bottle.
Contrast with something like Da Bomb Beyond Insanity and that sauce I found unbearable and the taste was unpleasant. I tried it a few times and pitched the rest of it without a second thought.
