“Red Belly’s unique smoky flavour stems from the Cobanero pepper.  This dark red and wrinkly pepper comes from the cloud forests of Guatemala, where Mayan communities have been harvesting and smoking peppers for millennia.  We have paired the fiery Cobanero with fire roasted tomatoes and garlic to give the sauce a fresh body packed with flavour.  Share your love for this sauce and enjoy!”

Picked this up on a recent trip to Arizona, in Whole Food Market, I think.

Man, do I like this sauce.  It’s smoky, but not too smoky, and a beautiful rich savoury flavour.  It’s not very hot (there’s a little punch of heat after the up-front flavour, which fades down nicely), which I’d have to say is my only mild criticism; a bit more pep would have elevated it even further for me.  I’ve had it spread on toast and crumpets

8/10 – Amazing!  Seems difficult to get hold of in the UK, which is a shame!
