Category: Hot Sauce Single

The eighth wing is a tough act to follow, but our friends at Dawson’s Hot Sauce stand out at #9 in the Hot Ones Season 22 lineup with this unique heater. A base of red bell pepper and super-hot 7-Pot Peppers is complemented by subtle licorice notes from Sambuca, an Italian liqueur traditionally used as an after-dinner digestif. A hint of fennel seed heightens the savory anise flavor, while garlic and maple syrup balance it all out for well-rounded flavor. We recommend using this hot sauce to fire up pasta, pizza, stews and ragus.

Ryan M. ★★★★★

That heat creeps up on you in the best way—the 7-Pot pepper kicks in right after the sweet red bell pepper hits, so it's a proper one-two punch. Third wing in and my nose is running, but I can't put the bottle down. Only issue is I flew through half of it in one sitting.

Jacob Y. ★★★★★

That red bell pepper base really lets the 7-pot heat sneak up on you—sweet and fruity at first, then a proper burn that sticks around. Perfect for wings, but I've been drizzling it on tacos too.

Mia E. ★★★★★

Red bell pepper base makes this one surprisingly approachable at first, then the 7-Pot heat builds into a proper sweat by the third wing. Took me through the whole bottle in a week, and my tolerance is already thanking me.
