Product Description

Handyman Chipotle Hot Sauce brings forth the authentic flavor of real chipotle peppers with a mild amount of heat and a lot of smoky goodness. If you want an easy and tasty way to add authentic flavor to your Mexican dishes, this is it. A lot of people don’t know this, but chipotle peppers are actually not their own genus of hot peppers. They are, in fact, jalapeno peppers that have been dried and smoked. The references to chipotle peppers having a smoky taste are because, well, they have been smoked.

Because they are jalapeno’s, they have a very mild heat as compared to peppers like the habanero. They also have a sweetness about then that isn’t found in any other peppers. The mild heat and sweetness make it a very popular pepper the world around. By smoking jalapeno’s, the sweetness is subdued a bit, but not removed entirely. The smokiness adds a savory flavor to the mix and you end up with the very versatile chipotle.

At Peppers of Key West, we obviously love Mexican food. We don’t always enjoy toiling over making the sauces for it though. With Handyman Chipotle Hot Sauce, we don’t have to. We just crack open the bottle and add to our dishes as we cook or over then as a sauce after the fact. We even dip nacho’s right into this stuff- okay, we usually add some habanero too.
