The flavor is excellent, probably in my Top 10 of hot sauces. Don't be fooled by the "Death Sauce" moniker. It's pretty mild. Even people unaccustomed to hot peppers will find this sauce "medium hot". True chili heads will find it very mild and more of a flavoring sauce than a hot sauce. Overall , it's a superb mild hot sauce with unparalleled flavor and I recommend it highly, unless you're seeking a truly hot hot sauce.
