    I don’t know, my mom brought me some Carolina reaper sauce from the UK a couple years ago. It was pretty good, but it was not the reaper level I was used to. I kinda loved it since I could eat it by the tablespoon and feel tough as nails.

    Update- for the record, the ingredient label of it read “Carolina reaper paste, salt”.

      I use bout 10-15 Carolina reapers for a 250 ml bottle. The other ingredients are decided based on what I fancy at the time. My current one is milder because the most aggressive thing they had at the import shop was habanero. I used a combination of stewed onion, apples and dates as the base with cider vinegar and Christmas spices. It’s kinda like hp with a bit of a kick. Pleasant but not very spicy.
