Dave's Gourmet Ghost Pepper Naga Jolokia Hot Sauce - Insanely Hot Plus Heat Level - Ghost Pepper Hot Sauce - Use on Wings, Stews, Potato Salad and More- Spicy Sauce for Chiliheads - 5oz (Pack of 1)

Yep, it's insane alright. Having tried Dave's Original Insanity and hearing all the campfire stories of the dreaded ghost pepper I decided to embark on a mystical journey and ordered a bottle of this. The bottle was unassuming enough when it arrived. Standard shape, somewhat mundane label, but it contained a substance that had a curiously bright crimson and orange color. Once opened it had a spicy smell, not unlike Tobasco although thankfully without the overwhelmingly foul essence of vinegar. Well, time for a taste. I got a good thick coat of the bright substance on my index finger and took the plunge. It had a pretty nice tangy flavor... That is it had a nice flavor for about 1500 milliseconds before Oppenheimer hit the red button and, "I am become heat, the destroyer of digestive tracts." The heat hit me like a runaway freight train hitting a house of cards. No, make that a run away freight train with several JATOs attached to the rear propelling it somewhere above the upper class neighborhood of mach 2. I doubled over and let out a raspy gasp, my face flushed to a hue not unlike the sauce itself, my eyes became a water park. My aural senses became dull like I was at the bottom of a swimming pool. I heard a knock at the door and stumbled towards it with blurred vision. It was a county sheriff at the door and he was there to serve me. My own tongue, esophagus, uvula, stomach, and intestinal tract had somehow just filed a class action lawsuit against me. I reeled backwards and fell onto the couch and tried to focus my bleary eyes on a small fuzzy object on the floor. It was my cat, standing quietly and observing my plight. Maybe it was the impaired vision, maybe it was the start of something more spiritual, but my cat's face warped into a Cheshire smile many times the girth of his face. Each tooth glowing with the luster of tarnished gold in an unholy candlelight. His eyes sank back into ashen voids, glimmering ember pin points at the center of each gaping socket. The room around him began to dance and spin and the walls eventually melted away to reveal a brimstone canyon stretching as far as could be imagined. "Soooo hoooot it's spoooooky," my cat boomed, his voice echoed with a baritone bass that would surely send James Earl Jones running for the hills. Sweating, hyperventilating, and nearly blind, my vision finally faded to black. I awoke with blinding light bombarding my face. How long was I out? Slowly gyrating figures came into focus and as my eyes adjusted more I recognized them as people standing over me. A few more moments and I was able to see one of the faces and... Grandpa?! I bolted upright nearly headbutting the entire crowd looming over me "Am I dead?!" I shouted. "No, no. You just had a bit too much of the insanity sauce in one go, I'm afraid. You'll be back to the mortal world in a few moments," my grandpa stated non nonchalantly, adjusting his tie slightly. "So, wait," I began, "Wha... what is this? ...Is this?" "Maybe," grandpa shrugged, "Perhaps you can ask me again on your next visit in a day or two." "Next visit?!" I shouted, "I'm not touching that sauce ever again! Except maybe per drop. Diluted in very large amounts of some sort of substrate like chilli. I-" Grandpa smiled and interrupted, "You only have a few seconds left. You'll be back at least once more, I know that for sure." "For sure?" I asked genuinely confused. Grandpa tiled his head, looking at me like I had just grown a third eye, "Well yeah. You already ate the stuff, and what goes in has to come out eventually." My face cracked and was painted with the same look a deer must have in the headlights of an approaching freight train that is powered by several JATO motors. Before I could seek further council I was grasped firmly by an unknown force and suddenly yanked away. The light got sucked into darkness and the roar of passing wind deafened me. I was falling. Soon something came into focus, approaching fast. It was the ground, rushing to greet me with the eagerness of a freshman salesperson thinking they've identified an easy mark. I began screaming, as if that would help. My life didn't flash before my eyes, I didn't have any final profound thoughts, my whole head was filled with paralyzing unmitigated terror. Closer, closer, closer. The ground hurled itself towards me in excitement to say hello to my face with a big wet, red kiss. And just as I'm 1mm away from contact... I jerk upright on my couch, back in my house. Sweaty and tongue numb, cat still sitting on the floor looking as plain as can be. I breathe a heavy sigh of relief, although doing so has a noticeable heat to it due to the remnants of the sauce. I hold my head in my hands and try to regain composure, reassuring myself it was just some weird dream brought on by everyday stress combined with the sudden shock of the ghost pepper sauce. My eyes drift around coming to rest on a stack of papers on the coffee table. Legal papers? I'm... I'm suing myself? I've since been eating lots of cheese and chocolate hoping to stave off the inevitable second visit to Grandpa. This sauce is hot. Really hot. Use a drop at a time in large volumes of other stuff that needs a bit of heat. Pros: Ultra super mega hot. Nice bright, festive color - If HGTV did a makeover of Satan's house they'd probably paint the living room with this stuff for the color. Cons: Flavor is made irrelevant due to the absurd level of heat. No stopper in the bottle's neck so be careful about pouring.

Alright. I'm just a sixteen, almost seventeen year old kid. High School Student, bored and wanting to buy some cool stuff. I tend to blow all of my money on cool internet stuff... I figured hot sauce was the next best route to take. I've tried a lot of neat stuff from cool organic pills that change bitter foods to sweet and insane prank sprays, but, I figured this would be my next step in the process. Wow. Just wow. I bought this stuff last week and it arrived this Friday, after picking it up with a good friend of mine, Brandon, at the post office, we headed home. I opened the package and we both vastly underestimated this product. He took a lot of this stuff. A lot. Probably a good-sized spoonful, at once. He was crying. A sheen of sweat covered his face as he fell on the kitchen floor, panting. Water, milk, bread, nothing worked. It was pure agony. He is a spicy fan, so, I was surprised to see this from him. Hesitant myself, as I'm not a big fan of spicy foods, I tried it. I saw the darkness. My left ear felt like it was about to explode and there was a trail of fire leading down my esophagus. I began to stumble around my kitchen, grabbing popsicles and milk and water. I had vastly underestimated the potential of this sauce. It is the destroyer of worlds. I'm not experienced with this stuff, but, my friend is, and it is the hottest thing he's ever had by miles. This stuff is 400x hotter than tabasco sauce on the Scoville scale. I invited my friends Rob, Matt and Cyrus over. Rob barely had a dab and nearly died, Matt took a small amount on a spoon and then downed a glass of milk and said "That's nothing" and smirked, then, a moment later, began swearing and freaking out, grabbing his bottle of fruit juice he brought over and chugging it. Cyrus began to cry and pant heavily. This stuff is amazing. Simply amazing. I added one good sized drop to some tomato soup I made for dinner, as well as a lot of other delicious spices (I'm great at makin' the stuff) and it really added a lot of flavor and a good amount of heat without making it overbearing. This sauce tastes really good and, as long as you aren't making your friends eat the stuff straight out to witness their horrified reactions, it will last an extremely long time. Do not drink this stuff straight out of the bottle without putting it on some sort of food. Trust me, unless you're looking for a kick, this is not a joke. This stuff is insane, I guess that's why it says "INSANE++" on the bottle. To quote Rob, "It's not hot anymore... IT JUST HURTS!!" Careful with this stuff!

Being a lover of hot chili sauces - I use Tabasco every day, and once drank a bottle to win 10 roubles - I thought I knew what chili heat could do. I had tried Dave's Insanity before, and had to have a bottle of their Ghost Pepper sauce, reputed to be very, very much hotter. Opening the bottle, I dipped my little finger in to try it. With just a tiny, tiny speck on my finger, almost invisible, I licked it. Wow!!! The heat starts off pretty easy, but then develops over the upper palate with a kind of icy capsaicin burn. The spot where I put it on my tongue quickly felt swollen, and soon the tip of my tongue went numb as it spread through my mouth. This is HOT! The most surprising thing is that from start to finish this sauce has a really delicious, well developed and rounded pepper taste. Unlike other very hot sauces that try for the heavyweight title, there is real depth and flavour here, which will certainly add more than just heat to any curry. chilli-con-carne or salsa. The sauce gradually wore off my palate until after 4 or 5 mins there was just a lovely pepper fruit flavour wafting in and out of my sinuses as I took a breath. In conclusion, this is not only one of the very hottest chili sauces, but in my experience the best flavoured as well. Of course, everything has its place, but I can really see this playing a major part in my kitchen not only as a condiment to scare guests with, but as a valued and versatile ingredient. By the way, well done to Hot-Headz, who got this excellent product to my door in 48hrs with a Bank Holiday in-between!

This hits the spot

After I tried a bottle of Tabasco's Scorpion special edition I found the Habarnero one no longer provided the necessary pain on my bacon and eggs. So I upgraded to this. It's much hotter than even the Tabasco Scorpion sauce, so it took a little getting used to. Then I tried a few other sauces, including Dave's Scorpion sauce, Z: Nothing Beyond, Who Dares Burns: Second Assault and finally Dave's Ultimate Insanity, but in the end I have come back to this one. It has the heat AND the taste. Dave's Scorpion sauce is very hot but has no extract, so it lacks the lava-like sensation (great chilli flavour though). Z is very tasty and very, very hot, but also very sweet. Who Dares Burns 2 and esp Dave's Ultimate Insanity taste awful, though certainly delivers the magma. In fairness to the latter, it's intended to be added to food as an ingredient, not a condiment, so I'm not using it properly. So perhaps use that for your curries/chillis, but use the Ghost Pepper one for your bacon and eggs, etc. Fantastic heat with a nice, strong chilli flavour without being sweet. Heat level: if you like vindaloos, or even phals, this sauce is for you. Otherwise you will find its heat genuinely alarming. Actually, even if you do like those curries, this will still surprise you!

ما قد ذقت شطة بهذه الحرارة العالية وما أقدر أكلها لحالها لازم أخففها بصوصات ثانية. أخلطها مع شطة رنا عشان أوصل للحرارة اللي أبغاها. طعمها لحالها كويس بس فيه مرارة قوية، لكن إذا خلطتها مع شطة رنا الطعم يصير مرة كويس والمرارة تروح.

Very very hot but a lovely flavour. Only a drop required to give a lot of heat in any cooking. Ghost pepper is my favourite flavour and this hits the spot 😋
