Sauce Leopard | The 13th Floor

I wasn’t sure about trying a craft hot sauce from a heat week collection, but the balance of heat and fruitiness in this one is spot-on. It adds a nice kick without overwhelming the dish. Really glad I gave it a shot.

I was surprised by how complex the flavor is for a hot sauce—the heat builds gradually without overwhelming the fruity notes. It's a solid addition to my collection, though I wish the bottle had a dripper for easier pouring.

The smoky heat creeps up on you after a few seconds, which gives each bite an interesting slow burn. I wish the bottle came with a dropper top for easier portion control.
