Label:
Well done. Professional. Largely black and white with colorful detail where is matters. Bespeaks it roots in Montana's mountains. The label is not smeared with gratuitous self-promotion.
Looks:
Looks like a high-quality verde hot sauce, slightly chunky, with the right colors, and slight separation at the top of the bottle.
Aroma:
Definitely a tart and vinegary aroma. Hits your nostrils in a pleasant way as well-made sauces do.
Taste:
Taste is tart and vinegary. The jalapeño shines through with most of its greenness.
Heat:
This sauce ranks at the bottom of the scale printed on the label and is called mild. I think it a bit spicier than mild. Will not give you a kick in the morning when you are over the porcelin throne but has a very nice spice in the mouth. I did not buy it for its heat. Flavor was what I was after.
Overall:
I found this on a skiing trip to Big Sky, Montana. The breakfast diner was serving this alongside Tabasco and another hot sauces. This won my heart and I went home a bottle of it and two other sauces from the Beehive Brothers. See my other reviews. One of those sauces was their red ripe serrano hot sauce. I paired that with the jalapeño sauce on my recreation of huevos divorciados: two eggs over-easy, one doused in red sauce, the other in green. Them's some great huevos. Maybe extremely hard to get outside of Southern Montana, but worth the effort. This is clearly not a mass-produced sauce, today, 3-24-18.
