![]() ![]() The heat doesn’t overwhelm the Chipotle flavor. Reading the back label is like taking a trip through a garden.Īt this point, I’m thoroughly enjoying myself. There are ground-up onions, red peppers, ginger roots and habaneros in here. And the flavor is fantastic – the coffee notes are immediately pleasant, and it pairs nicely with the vinegar.

Queen Majesty Red Habanero & Black Coffee Sauce The heat is lingering in my mouth, although it’s just a pleasant burn at this point. This is where the effects start to take hold. The flavor is basically your run-of-the-mill green salsa served at any Mexican restaurant. It actually surprised me with the amount of heat it brought, but it still wasn’t too bad. This was one of my least favorite sauces. I was always confused why the show went with Sriracha first because I think it’s hotter than Tabasco, but that’s beside the point.
