We are proud to present our debut sauce under the "The Sauce Forge" brand; "The Original". Our signature sauce, honed and refined, our testers have sung its praises, hailing its versatility, going great as a dipping sauce, smothered over chicken wings, used a marinade, and adding it to all manner of dishes. Our signature recipe retains its fermented tang, punchy fruity zing, perfectly balanced heat. We are so excited to take this recipe to market.

Our Signature Sauce

We are very excited to take our signature recipe to market officially. We aim to produce this sauce regularly throughout the year, using ingredients that are obtainable even outside the shorter pepper-growing season we experience in the UK. Sourcing and hand-selecting our ingredients from local businesses is key to our process.

Stepping up to produce a product under The Sauce Forge brand has led us to scale our operation. Producing a higher volume for direct sale means we’ve also increased our diligence in monitoring the fermentation process to ensure we’re consistently producing the very best product.

Alongside The Original sauce, we’ve also developed a brand mascot—a wizard—who will feature on our labels throughout the initial launch range.

🔥 How to enjoy The Original

Our customers love this sauce! and we are super proud of it, while doing our market research and checking out others in the craft hot sauce scene, we can safely say our sauce has a unique zing, that nobody else is matching! If you can handle heat go crazy, but for those who can't we suggest you go easy, scotch bonnets are no joke!
