I would class myself as someone who doesn't generally like sauces, from ketchup to hp I find that sauces tend to drown out the flavour of what you're eating, and while this is still true of the one type of sauce I do love, the humble hot sauce, I am completely addicted to the stuff. The bottle displays a pleasant tropical scene in a deep blue colour which contrasts with the vibrant red of the sauce which can be seen through the clear glass from which the container is made. This not only provides a nice contrast of colour (if that's what you look for in a sauce 8^P) but it does have a practical application, you can assess the consistency and composition of the ...  Read the complete review

I picked up a bottle of Encona West Indian Original Hot Pepper sauce in Iceland a few weeks ago. It cost around £1.00 for 142ml which I thought was pretty reasonable, but in my experience 'hot' sauces tend to be a bit tame and I have to use a third of the bottle in one go, so not having used this before I probably wouldn't have paid much more for a 'trial run'. I was, therefore, pleasantly surprised with this sauce. This baby is FIERCE and then some! Upon first glance it didn't look very scary. On the bottle there's a lovely picture of a beach and a hammock and it just states that the sauce is 'hot' and there is a single red pepper to signify the ...  Read the complete review

I got this about a week ago, as I am always on the look out for spicy sauces and marinades and this cost just 62p for 142ml. It was on offer though and the regular price is 94p. I hadn't really heard of these before but I had a quick look at the ingredients and it said that one of them was the infamous Scotch Bonnet Pepper (Levi Roots talked a lot about the Scotch Bonnet on his cooking show), so I had to try it. It does say on the front of the bottle that it is classed as hot on the spicy scale, but it really packs a punch. I like spicy foods but I think this is the hottest I can handle. I don't like it when food is so hot that you can't taste ...  Read the complete review

I love adding a bit of spice to my foods, and one of the ways I do that is by drizzling a little hot sauce into my cooking, one of my favourites being Encona West Indian Hot Pepper Sauce, which contains the incredibly hot Scotch Bonnet chilli. This sauce costs under £1 for a small 142ml bottle, and I've found that a bottle of this takes me a long way . Peoples definition of hot can vary, but I've found that a sprinkling of this over a donner kebab is enough to have me gasping in shock at the heat and running for the water glass. It is a little too hot for me to use neat as a dip or accompaniement, so I tend to add it into cooking rather than onto finished ...  Read the complete review

You must like spicy food to even think about using this Encona Original West Indian Hot Pepper Sauce. It is one of the hottest shop bought sauces I have tried. Encona West Indian Hot Pepper Sauce is made in the Caribbean and Scotch bonnet peppers are used in the recipe that makes this sauce. Scotch bonnet peppers are bell shaped chilli peppers about the size of a small plum so if you are ever looking for these peppers in the green grocer they may be sold under the name bell peppers and are one of the hottest chilli peppers in the world. So you can see why this sauce has quite a kick. This sauce is definitely for hot ...  Read the complete review
