A pricey hot sauce with fantastic heat and flavor...use judiciously.
I'll state up front that I have not tried the lower-heat version of this sauce. Based on the price and my personal tastes I decided to skip straight to this hotter version, and after trying it with several foods I am very pleased with my decision and of course the sauce itself.This sauce has a fantastic, unique flavor profile that will still give a satisfying burn. This is a rich, viscous, high-quality hot sauce and I would generally say that a price point between $10-15 is justified, however that also creates a usage conundrum that I will attempt to describe further below.First of all, when you're paying around $2 per ounce you're going to want to be pretty selective with how and when you use the sauce. This is a legitimate high-end hot sauce...how many of those even exist, and how are they supposed to be used? I came up with a few guidelines:1) The quality of the food should match the quality of the sauce. Can you put this stuff on a cheap frozen pizza and make the pizza better? Of course you can, but also know that the cheap pizza will make the sauce worse. Quality foods will bring out the best qualities in the sauce.2) Less is more. Again, this is a rich hot sauce and it doesn't take a lot to make its presence known. Start with a small amount and ramp up as desired, but you don't need much to impact the flavor of foods. Given the cost of this sauce you are probably already trying not to be wasteful or excessive, and this is yet another reason to apply it selectively.3) While it needs refrigeration after opening, the flavor is maximized above room temperature. If you're applying the sauce to a warm dish, you can probably dab it on straight out of the fridge since the dish will bring it out of its cold state. If you're going to use it on something that isn't so warm, I recommend portioning out the amount that you want and either letting it warm up to room temperature on its own or, if you're in a hurry, microwaving it briefly as if you were softening butter (which is to say, gently).You pay for what you get, so use it wisely and you will be very satisfied with the value, and more importantly the flavor.

Amazing flavor, perfect heat, you'll never go back
As a long time customer in-store, I've found it's hard to come by on the shelf so I ordered online this time and I wanted to share that this hot sauce will be your go-to if you're a first time buyer. Let me share some details.A lot of people will get it just for the heat factor, it's not the hottest sauce around but it is pleasantly more potent than other brands, but that's where the comparison ends. This sauce here has the best flavor that one could ask for, just a little bit in any recipe in place of other brands completely elevates the flavor profile. It goes good with anything. The black truffle stands out and brings whatever you put it on, or in, to a completely different level. These guys know how to make a great hot sauce and you will not regret your purchase. If you like a little heat the regular one is what I'd recommend but with this one a little goes a long way as well. If you like it hot this is the sauce for you hands down. I swear by truff and I'll never switch back to the big name brands.As a side note and a disclaimer I'm not paid, I didn't receive anything free nor do I wish to, truff is just that good.

Delicious hot sauce
Truff hot sauces are great; the "hotter" version has a nice level of heat that is hot without being overwhelming and goes well on eggs, tacos, and mixed with ketchup for fries.

Great flavor and spice but not worth the price.
I am a huge hot sauce person and really wanted to try this truffle hotter sauce and the truffle hot sauce..PROS- Great flavor and spice to it. The consistency is thick enough to not run off whatever you are putting it on but thin enough to spread evenly. The spice is hotter than the hot sauce but still tolerable and worth the after burn.CONS- The price is just too high for how much you're getting in it. The bottle is very nice but not practical for how much you use it. A squirt lid or squeeze bottle would be better. No need for it to be a twist off unless you plan to use it for wings. You have to shake it a lot to prevent it from clumping up.Overall I enjoyed trying them and will definitely use them up quickly, but I do not think I would buy both again as the price is the deal breaker.

It’s borderline too hot ( from a Mexican girl)
This hot sauce might be too hot for most but it isn’t so hot if you enjoy “hot”. I am Mexican and I enjoy hot but not as hot as some of my Mexican friends and family. so in my opinion this sauce is just right perhaps slightly too hot some days depending on my mood... sometimes it’s borderline too hot for me to enjoy but other times I think it’s perfect. I think a little more hot and I wouldn’t enjoy it as much as I do. I did enjoy the white bottle version of this sauce better as I felt the flavor was much richer and creamier but less spicy than this one.. to me that one is a 5 out of 5 stars due to the richnes in flavor, while this red bottle one is a 4-4.5 out of 5. Don’t get me wrong It’s still one of my favorite hot sauces in the market and I will continue to buy it but the white truffle one is just exceptional when it comes to flavor and regardless of it not being spicy like this one. The white one is perfect as a gift!!! I think this company did an exceptional job!!! The only thing I would critic is that it’s hard to get the sauce to come out of the bottle When you are trying to pour it out... but I really don’t even know how they can do that better being that the bottle is made of glass which I truly do appreciate! in which case it’s worth the struggle.

Complex flavor profile. Excellent overall!
I got the hotter sauce (I love extra spicy!) and its fantastic! Slightly sweet but it's just an undertone. Nice spice to it and the truffle flavor is interesting... its earthy but not overwhelmingly earthy. Its definitely a thicker hot sauce when it comes out of the bottle but thins out once it touches warm food. I love this stuff already and just got it in today and used it on pizza, hoagie, nuggets and fries! I want to try them all now! Two thumbs up for sure!!
