Bio

Bourbon Q Barrel Select is a unique hot sauce that combines the flavors of bourbon with peppers, creating a savory and slightly sweet profile. It’s ideal for bourbon enthusiasts looking to add a twist of heat to their dishes.

Bottle Inspection

First off, the bottle is thin, molded very much like a flask. The lid is a very welcome wooden stopper cork. The label is elegant, reflecting its bourbon barrel aging process and artisanal craftsmanship.

Pourability

The sauce has a medium consistency, allowing for a smooth pour from the wide neck. The wooden cork adds a rustic touch and preserves the flavors.

Smell & Taste

The aroma is rich with smoky bourbon notes combined with the sharpness of peppers. The taste is complex, starting with a sweet bourbon flavor followed by a mild heat from jalapeño and cayenne peppers. There’s a subtle tanginess and a hint of oak from the barrel aging process.

Final Thoughts

Bourbon Q Barrel Select is perfect for those who enjoy a hint of bourbon in their hot sauce. Its balanced flavors make it a versatile condiment for barbecue, burgers, and grilled meats, adding a touch of sophistication to every bite.
