Hey everyone. Just wanted to share today's haul and a bit about my hot sauce journey.
I always liked spicy foods, whether it be hot sauces or spicy dishes. I always used hot sauce: Tabasco, Tapatio, etc. I lived in that limited world and it never occurred to me that there was more. I just didn't think about it.
Then I found this sub and I've been on a thrilling adventure ever since. My eyes opened and I awakened to an entire world of sauces. Tabasco Scorpion, Marie Sharp's, and Torchbearer sauces have been my top 3. I can no longer eat a meal with a simple Tapatio or Cholula. My tongue craves hotter, better flavors, and it's been a blast seeking them out. After I make a dent in the ~30 sauces in my cabinet, I'm going to explore making my own sauce and even growing my own peppers.
Today, I took the family on a 30 minute drive to Dixon, CA to visit Pedrig's Produce, specifically because of their "Wall of Spice". These are the sauces I picked up. Anybody have any experience with these?
Big thanks to all here who contribute to and manage this sub.

“Wall of Flame”. Not spice. I dont know how to edit the original post.
Having it named the wall of ‘flame’ is so peak
Iguana makes some great sauces. Not too much a fan of the one you got but other ones are awesome.
That place has a great variety of good sauce. Update us on the sauces you try that really shine.
Nice haul! You will probably regret the Dave’s Insanity sauce. It’s been around for years, but uses extract to make it so hot.
