This sauce is one I've been waiting to try for some time. CaJohns sauces are always enjoyably unique.
This is sweeter than I expected. I know, chipotle is going to have a smoke kick to it, which is a present flavor here, but where normally there's a tang to chipotle sauces, this mellows instead, reaching a sweet and garlicy note with almost no aftertaste.
If I were new to black-garlic, this would be a great place to start a journey with it. It's smooth and glossy, and will get into the nooks and crannies of whatever you use it on. I might have wanted more heat as a personal preference, but that doesn't change this glowing review. This feels versatile and fragrant, and would go with a wide variety of dishes, and I can bring it out for guests without scaring them away.
