Label:
Simple yet elegant green label with a heart containing some of the ingredients used in the sauce (onions, limes carrots, habaneros, and garlic).
Looks:
Thick orange sauce with noticeable but infrequent seeds. The sauce resembles the consistency of what I would imagine a carrot puree to be.
Aroma:
When taking a good sniff of this sauce all you can really smell is the vinegar which isn't necessarily bad. You do also get a hint of the sweetness of the carrots mixed with habanero.
Taste:
This sauce has it all: sweetness from the carrots, tangyness from the vinegar and the lime, and heat from the habanero. As I am writing this review I am enjoying it on a burrito from chipotle.
Heat:
This is not so hot that you can't enjoy multiple drops on a burrito from chipotle. But Hot enough to notice that it is a formidable adversary to your mouth
Overall:
I enjoy this sauce on many meals. From mac and cheese to pizza, and of course burritos this sauce does well in creating a mouthfeel like no other. Ever since my aunt visited Belize and brought this sauce back with her fourscore and seven years ago (well not actually it's more like 6 years) I have been restocking it in my pantry ever since.
