INGREDIENTS: Tomatoes, yellow onion, water, chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, red habanero peppers, lemon juice, distilled vinegar, garlic, sea salt, spices, and corn starch.

CONTAINER: New labels on the way!

APPEARANCE: The sauce is much like the sauce you’d get at a Mexican restaurant salsa bar except less chunky. The seeds and skins are intact.

SMELL: Sweet chiptole! Chipotle is predominant smell though the garlic and onions come through as well.

CONSISTENCY: The perfect slow pour yet not molasses slow. Pour with abandon.

TASTE: The taste is as advertised. The tomatoes carry all the flavor – it is the base and the other ingredients are troops. First you reach the habanero flavor but only for a moment which then gives way to a wave of chipotle. The garlic and salt make sure the sauce doesn’t taste like a V8. Good stuff! Chipotley without the horrible Mexican restaurant chipotle overkill.

HEAT: Rating is 8.4 out of 10. OK, I admit it! I took a swig. I was in for a bit of a surprise. Even though it is a chipotle sauce you really get some habanero heat.

FIELD TEST: This is an all purpose sauce. Mexican food? Check. Pork? Check. Chicken? Check. I would recommend going to your local Taco Bell and pouring it all over your Chalupa. (Am I the only person who likes Taco Bell here? It’s horrible Mexican food but great fast food.)

FINAL WORD: I have reviewed three Scotty B’s sauces and I’ve loved them all. To be honest I worry about being brand-biased but the sauces have been so damn good. This one really caught my tongue’s attention because for the first time since I was a kid I am eating chipotle. And if you’re going out for the night and you don’t know where you can take this sauce around because it goes well with everything. Scotty B’s doesn’t get too fancy and hones the ability to make a really good no frills but delicious sauce.

OVERALL: Rating is 9.0 out of 10. This one will have you setting aside a space in your fridge for it. Classic!
