“King of Flavor Since 1968®”
In the rich culinary landscape of Mexico, few chiles carry the mystique of chiltepín—the small, wild pepper often called the “mother of all chiles.” When blended with the vibrant character of habanero, the result is a sauce of remarkable depth, balance, and authenticity.
Since 1968, when Priamo J. Gamboa began crafting homemade habanero sauces in the Yucatán Peninsula, El Yucateco has honored traditional methods while sharing the bold spirit of Mexican cuisine with the world. What began as a small family operation has grown into a globally respected pioneer in habanero hot sauces and traditional condiments, exported throughout the United States, Europe, Asia, and Oceania.
A Celebration of Two Legendary Chiles
El Yucateco Chile Habanero & Chiltepin Hot Sauce unites two iconic Mexican peppers in a harmonious blend. The chiltepín—small, round, and naturally wild—brings a bright, slightly smoky nuance with a distinctive, earthy character. The habanero contributes its fruity warmth and unmistakable depth.
With a measured 1,885 Scoville Heat Units, this sauce offers a refined, medium heat that enhances rather than overwhelms. Crafted without extracts or concentrates, it reflects El Yucateco’s enduring commitment to pure ingredients and balanced flavor.
The texture is full and smooth, coating the palate with savory richness while allowing the natural character of each chile to shine.

Complement grilled meats and roasted poultry
