My first truly wonderful Taco was an experience I have never forgotten and this sauce is very reminiscent of that. However, the sauce is so much more than just a taco sauce. Ghost of Saffron combines all of my favorite aspects of an incredible hot sauce into one insane flavor bomb! The combination of Scotch bonnet and ghost peppers lead to a very complex and satisfying burn, while the avocado oil brings a luxurious mouthfeel to the sauce. Roasted garlic and onion combined with toasted cumin seed in just a whisper of saffron to create a sauce that I never thought could be achieved.

About the maker

High Desert Sauce Co.

Tucson, Arizona hot sauces from Zac Perkins, who traded barbecue sauce for hot sauce in 2017 and hasn’t looked back.

Ghost of Saffron is the standout: a taco-style scotch bonnet and ghost pepper sauce with saffron and avocado oil, now in a Hotter version too. The range reads like a menu, with Fire Roasted Green and FIRE! Roasted Red, After Dark and Date Night Adobo, Not Mama’s Chamoy, Tikk-HOT Masala, Smoky Chiltepin and Reaper’s Fuzzy Navel. Hot is the biggest group, with plenty of mild and medium bottles too. Read our maker spotlight.
