Category: Hot Sauce Single

We're thrilled to have partnered with one of our all-time favorite makers, Maui-born Adoboloco, on our 9th anniversary bottling! This sauce balances the rich, savory flavor of tamari and shiitake mushrooms and the fruitiness of umeboshi plums with the frusty sizzle of habanero and a hint of wasabi. The sea beans add a unique salinity. Not too hot, with just the right high-toned sweetness, this special sauce is meant for shredded pork and grilled snapper, but would also add generous complexity to simple fare like rice dishes, sandos and tofu with veggies. We can't think of a better way to celebrate 9 years of our HEATONIST Brooklyn store than by releasing this epic sauce.

Evelyn ★★★★★

The tamari and shiitake combo gives it this deep, umami-rich kick that I didn't expect from a hot sauce—way more complex than your standard vinegar-forward bottle. I've been drizzling it over rice bowls and eggs all week, and it's already half gone.

John J. ★★★★★

I opened this bottle expecting just another hot sauce, but that deep mushroom-soy depth hits completely different—it’s rich and savory in a way that makes plain rice taste like a full meal. The heat creeps up nicely after the first few bites, so you get flavor before the burn.

Joshua ★★★★★

The umami from the tamari and shiitake really comes through without being overpowering, and it’s got just enough heat to wake up my eggs without drowning them. I’ve been putting it on everything from rice bowls to roasted veggies, and the bottle’s already showing some serious wear.
