    Label:

    Cool label that says what this hot sauce is all about. Looks like a quality oil painting almost. One of the best labels Ive seen....new label is not reflected in the picture above.

    Looks:

    Consistency almost of a thick ketchup, however it has too many seeds that almost get in the way of the otherwise perfect, thicker texture.

    Aroma:

    I get an aroma mainly of vinegar. Rather basic. Kind of wishing I would get a more fresh aroma of the actual peppers being used. Kind of masked.

    Taste:

    Vinegar, garlic, onion. Flavor profile best described as versatile....literally can be used on everything. Described by the manufacturer as having a slight amount of "sweet" taste...but Im not getting it. Savory sauce surprisingly good with potato chips or pizza.

    Heat:

    The heat level for me is hot, but not enough to make your experience uncomfortable. Will probably leave a little sweat on your forehead but not leave you in pain. If you're a hot sauce nut as I am, this will be a breeze. If you're the hipster kid that has only really used Sriracha before, you might want to sample a small amount of this before diving in.

    Overall:

    A good choice for an everyday sauce that heats you up, but not too much. The aroma and taste leave a slight amount to be desired however. Nothing besides the label really screams "Jamaican" to me but at the same time it's certainly not a bad sauce. Versatile flavor earns it praise from me, but the amount of seeds could be a problem for some uses.
