torchbearer saucesGarlic Reaper Sauce, 5 oz Garlic & Carolina Reaper Hot Sauce, Heat Level 9 - Featured on Hot Ones - All Natural, Extract-Free, Made in USA

This is currently one of my top 2 hot sauces. Okay, it's actually my number one now that I think about it. I haven't used any others in my kitchen in months. It is very HOT and you only need a tiny drop or two for heat and flavor. Depending on personal preference. I can eat spicy food, but this is HOT...and I love it. The garlic flavor and heat is top notch. I'm addicted to this. It's great on meats, rice, mix in with homemade dips, soups, etc. I hope this never gets discontinued. This smells good, tastes good and has a good *shelf life* but not as long as regular grocery store hot sauces that my be good for 2 years for example. **Note that this needs to be refrigerated after opening.

I'm not even sure where to begin. I have seriously been blow away by this sauce, in more ways than one! I'll start by saying that I LOVE hot sauce, in all shapes and sizes, but I especially love sauces that that taste great, have a lot of heat, are versatile, and keep me wanting more. This is that sauce, in spades.Positives.- The sauce has a great consistency. It is a medium thickness, not thick enough to get clogged up in the neck of the bottle, but thick enough that it is not just going to spill all over when you try to pour it. It is fairly easy to dose out, which is important with a sauce this spicy.- The smell is not overwhelming. This is nice because my wife is sensitive to smells and will often make me eat in another room if I put hot sauce on my food (most of the time, it's worth it).- The ingredients. Oil based, no fillers, just goodness.- The taste. There is a great meeting of flavors in this sauce and if you were to taste it on its own, you can taste the slight hint of garlic (it's not overwhelming), the tang of the lime and mustard, and of course the sweet heat goodness of the reaper.- I really do put this stuff on everything, sandwiches, hot dogs, hamburgers, pizza, soup, crackers... you name it.The bad.- This stuff is pricey. This is the most I have spent on a hot sauce. I will say that even though it is pricey, it has lasted for a while and in my opinion, worth the price paid.I have recommended this sauce to several of my friends, and anyone that has tried it has liked it to varying degrees. It is not the hottest stuff out there, but honestly for the taste and the heat, it is one of the best around!

The title says it all! This sauce is fantastic. The heat is very nice, and the flavor is amazing with steak and chicken tacos.

I've got more hot sauce than I could possibly eat kind of a collection this is a hot sauce that is pretty hot but the flavor isn't destroyed by the heat if you know what I mean it's a good tasting high heat hot sauce

Hot sure. Flavor? Ok. It will make you sick to your stomach though. After all the Reaper sauces I have tried, take it from me who loves spicy food. Stick with Ghost Pepper as the ceiling. Anything above that is just trying to impress others. Not worth the stomach ache after consumption nor the 10:30 AM rush to the toilet at work the next day:)

First, please let me say that I carefully read almost every single Amazon review of this particular sauce. I've witnessed the good, the bad...and certainly the ugly.I've long been on the hunt for a sauce that can do two things with unabashed aplomb. The sauce much balance the equal nuance of flavor and heat. That said, I'm quite sure that most of us seekers are used to sauces that just bring the darn fire and overpower our culinary palate. And, on the opposite side of things, we've enjoyed delightful flavor while being entirely underwhelmed by the heat.In my recent experience, TorchBearer Sauces' Garlic Reaper offering absolutely ticks all of my boxes. I can, easily, see this working magic on my eggs, my Cuban Sandwiches, my sous vide steaks, my marinated grilled chicken breasts, etc., etc.All that said, based upon my referencing the extensive research I did at the very beginning of this review, I'd like to offer the following. First, and it appears foremost, the seller I purchased from was Common Cents Distributors. (There appear to be adverse issues with folks purchasing from other sellers.) Per my purchase, the bottle arrived in perfect condition. Further, the color tone was spot-on for the normal TorchBearer Sauces' Garlic Reaper golden yellow with a touch of orange. Upon opening the bottle, my olfactory passages were simultaneously greeted to the pungent aroma of garlic and the delightful warning of heat ahead.Although I'd thoroughly enjoy just a bit more heat, this is a sauce I can see myself staying with for life. It appears to be the typical case of buyer beware with sellers. This is no fault of the buyers; I'm just happy to share a positive experience I've had to perhaps be of help to all.

I go through a lot of hot sauces, from mild to The Last Dab and Queen's Majesty, occasionally Da Bomb. This is by far my most-used bottle however. Tastes good on almost everything! Packaging and delivery has been good so far. No issues. Torchbearer's best sauce.
