august heat co.#1 Datil Pepper Hot Sauce

Since 2016, AUGUST HEAT CO. has done more than refine an old tradition: We've started a new one.

Guided by an international palate, we fuse unique fermenting techniques from around the world to create interesting flavors and texture for Hot Sauces and Shrubs.

At AUGUST HEAT CO., we make everything in small batches from our home state in Florida, and we specialize in the St. Augustine native: Datil Peppers.

Batch No.1: Discovery

It all started with a notion: what if you blended Datil Peppers in with smooth honey mustard and a dash of fresh herbs and spices? What kind of sauce would that be?
Turns out: it makes for a top-notch, competition BBQ that’s unlike anything you’ve had before. Now, you can enjoy our sweet, spicy, “southern bombshell” of a sauce wherever you call home!

BATCH NO.2:
Something Green

“ Gotta have Sauce."

Datil Verde — The Worlds first Datil Pepper Verde Hot Sauce

Datil Verde is a smooth Datil Pepper Jalapeño hot sauce. Perfectly blended with fresh avocados, tomatillos, cilantro, key limes and spices to create a truly unique Florida Hot Sauce. This the world’s best-selling Datil Pepper Hot Sauce (also found in store at the HEATONIST in NYC).

Batch No.3:
Make it Smoke

For our next endeavor, we wanted to create another first; so with some serious heat, testing, and flavor analysis- we decided to make something smokey!
Being a pioneer has to be more than the just being first though: it has to be the best.
Keeping this in mind, we knew we needed to bring in more robust flavors: that of rich chipotle peppers, refreshing Florida Key Lime, and, (of course) a few more of our favorite Datil peppers.
The end result? A fiery sauce exploding with heat and flavor that will make any dish a one-of-a-kind experience!
