Talk About Vintage Each batch of TABASCO Original Red Sauce is aged in white oak barrels for up to eight years, much longer than the normal three year process of our TABASCO Original Red Sauce. McIlhenny Company TABASCO brand products are made by McIlhenny Company, founded by Edmund McIlhenny in 1868 on Avery Island, Louisiana. It was here that he developed the recipe for TABASCO Original Red Pepper Sauce that's been passed down from generation to generation. To this day, TABASCO Sauce is still made on Avery Island. In fact, about half of the company’s 200 employees actually live on Avery Island, with many of their parents and grandparents having worked and lived there as well. Anthony “Tony” Simmons, the current President and CEO, is the seventh McIlhenny family member in a chain of direct descendants who have strived to preserve the legacy and traditions of the company’s creator. TABASCO Pepper Sauce is made with three simple ingredients and aged in oak barrels on Avery Island, Louisiana before bottling. Review: Probably my favorite Tabasco Sauce Now! - Decided to give this a shot, as my giant bottle of standard ran out, and the Scorpion only has so many uses as a daily. THIS TABASCO IS AMAZING. It's almost buttery/savory while giving a nice heat and delicious flavor. It's smoother in its notes, than standard by massive measures while packing a better heat. Not as vinegary, yet still holds its acidity so well. Just got my bottle maybe a bit over a week ago, and I'm almost ⅛th done with it. Try this sauce. If you like Tabasco, you will not regret it. Review: Deeper, richer, and somehow spicier than the original - This has become my absolute favorite hot sauce. Whenever I go back to regular Tabasco, I find myself wondering why it tastes so different. The Family Reserve version has a richer, zingier, and earthier flavor that really stands out. Everything I’ve read says it isn’t hotter than the original, but to me it definitely feels that way. There’s more pop and intensity in the spice. If this is what the Tabasco family was keeping for themselves all these years, I can understand why. ## Features - FAMILY RESERVE PEPPER SAUCE: Once reserved for the McIlhenny family and close friends, our TABASCO brand Family Reserve Pepper Sauce blends premium ingredients to create an exclusive, limited edition flavor that you can only find here - SPECIALITY BLEND: Made from special, hand-selected peppers and salt, this unique pepper mash is aged for up to 8 years in white oak barrels, much longer than the normal 3 year aging process of our Original Red Sauce.

The 8 year old mash gives it a sweeter taste and the white wine vinegar has a more mellow flavor. **Q: Which sauce is the hotest?** A: Hi, TABASCO Family Reserve is not really any hotter than regular TABASCO. You might want to try the TABASCO Scorpion Sauce for a real hot kick. We are authorized TABASCO sellers and we have that one too. **Q: Wasn’t earlier versions of the family reserve made from peppers from avery island v. south america? is that no longer the case** A: The recipe has not changed. This Reserve product is still made with peppers grown on Avery Island. **Q: You can get them from the Tabasco country store for $10 each standard price** A: But you have to also pay for shipping from the country store ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Probably my favorite Tabasco Sauce Now! *by R***B on October 31, 2024* Decided to give this a shot, as my giant bottle of standard ran out, and the Scorpion only has so many uses as a daily.

I love this on nearly anything.
