“Whether used as a spicy dip or to add some kick to your savoury dish, Tropical Sun Jamaican Crushed Red Chilli Sauce is a kitchen cupboard essential for any spice aficionado. The winner of the prestigious Great TastE Award, it is made from a blend of Caribbean hot peppers by the people of Central Village, Jamaica. Enjoy!”
Ingredients list is pretty short and sweet – peppers are top of the list which is nice to see!
The consistency of the sauce reflects the chillis being crushed rather than blended; you you can see the small chunks of chilli (and seeds!) suspended in a relatively thin sauce. Easily pourable, but the solids mean that overall it’s not overly runny.
Great taste; good up-front heat, good after-burn with a gentle fade-away. Not overwhelming, but enough bite to let you know it’s there. The sweetness and acidity is well balanced & complements the flavour of the peppers. It’s un-pretentious and I’d say that it’s a simple recipe executed very well#
8/10 – Great!
