hot sauce review 2

ok its that time again.... time for another hot sauce review since i have some excellent new additions to the collection...first are probably two of the most well known and definately my top two favorites at the moment...

on the left we have daves insanity sauce.... this was the first sauce to incorporate the extracts of hot peppers for that extra kick and when it first came out, he was kicked out of a sauce awards show for it being too hot.... well, compared to the insane extract based stuff thats out on the market now, this stuff is pretty mild but will still make you NEED a glass of milk... it has a reaaaallly good flavor too and makes an excellent addition to chip dips, salsas and chicken.Second in the picture is Blairs Jersey Death. two words: FUCKING CHRIST! this stuff is double the heat of the last hot sauces review hottest sauce.... this stuff is 750 times hotter then a jalapeno pepper and you can just see the wickedness in the bottle... there is sort of a resin that forms on the side of the bottle in this really dark red syrup. It doesnt really pour out of teh bottle, it just kind of runs out really slowly the way that really thick honey would. i tried a couple dabs on a toothpick and for the first ten seconds i couldnt feel the back of my throat and i think i stopped breathing until i could handle the pain enough to muster up a cough.... this is pretty much the hottest stuff that you can get in a bottle for under ten dollars... Blair currently makes stuff that is 16 times hotter then this but you have to shell out a pretty penny for the bottles because they are quite rare and collectible and really arent even supposed to be consumed. There are warnings on the Jersey Death that tell you that this shouldnt be consumed without diluting it first. amazing stuff. i cant wait to try it on some ramen later today!second, this is the rest of the Blairs line that I have obtained...

i think im only missing one or two pretty rare ones in the "death sauces" line that he makes.... all of these are pretty much the same with a few differences in flavor and each one is progressively hotter then the next by leaps and bounds.... the "possible side effects" is arguably the tastiest sauce in the line and has a lot more ingredients then just peppers and vinegar. I would reccomend this as a good starter sauce in getting into the world of insane killer sauces. the other two are really hot and i havent had much time with them to taste the difference in flavor but i do know that there are a few different ingredients in them so they should be interesting once the burn resides and you can actually taste what is in it!
