ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
Surprisingly Mild Guajillo Ghost is a Tex-Mex inspired hot sauce and marinade that flips expectations on their head. Ghost peppers (Naga Jolokia) are famous for their blistering heat—but here, they’re chosen not for their bite, but for their deep, fruity, earthy character.
Blended with savory dried guajillo chilies, aromatic cumin, oregano, and a carefully balanced splash of vinegar, this sauce captures the soulful warmth of Southwestern cooking without overwhelming spice. The result? A ghost pepper sauce with virtually no real heat—just layers of bold, savory complexity.
Winner of the 2012 Hot Pepper Award for
Most Unique Super Chile Hot Sauce
Because a ghost pepper sauce with almost no heat? That’s about as rare as a cat that actually comes when called.
TASTING NOTES
Bright and punchy from the first taste, this sauce opens with a tart snap of vinegar and toasted spice. Earthy, berry-like ghost pepper notes weave together with the fruity depth of dried guajillo chilies. Cumin and oregano take center stage, creating a savory backbone that feels unmistakably Tex-Mex.
The finish is long and spice-driven—warm with dried chili character and aromatic herbs, but only a gentle, fleeting sting of vinegar instead of a burn. It’s full-flavored, vibrant, and surprisingly smooth.
Not very spicy. Extremely flavorful.
