Label:
The label is well made for what it's going for; I don't like what it's going for but hey it's visually appealing. I just think the image of a barnfire is not what I want to see. It does the complex flavor an injustice.
Looks:
No complaints here. Nice texture.
Aroma:
God. Even when I don't want spicy, I want this sauce on everything purely for the nose. Great mix of herbs and peppers, very garlic forward. I always want more garlic in my food and this is a good solution to that problem.
Taste:
Well-balanced on the spice and the peppers. They support the herbal, garlicky flavor that makes this sauce so good. It's not a pepper-forward sauce, but it doesn't need to be.
Heat:
Pleasant, strong heat. It's not a shy sauce but it's also not one of those sauces that makes your whole mouth numb. Just right in my opinion. This sauce is more about the flavor.
Overall:
I really like this sauce. The heat is just right, and supports the god-like flavor. I want this on pizza, spaghetti, literally anything. Thank you for your sauce, Jersey Barnfire. I wish you had a better name so I could recommend this to all my friends without feeling weird for suggesting they treat their palate to a 'barnfire'. It undersells the magnificent flavor.

Label:
Attractive label, professional looking
Looks:
Nice dark brown color, consisteny is slightly thick but pourable.
Aroma:
Oddly enough I smelled basil when I first opened it which is a possibility since it says it contains herbs. It definitely has a nice rich garlic nose upfront
Taste:
This sauce is fantastic. I can't really say anything bad about it. The flavor is rich and deep, hint of smoke, with pronounced black garlic flavor and subtle sweetness
Heat:
Medium heat. This one is definitely flavor forward.
Overall:
Great find. Definitely a favorite in my collection. Love the deep rich flavor.
