The Full Horrifying Hot Sauce Lineup
Our sauces range from PG *mild* to NC-17 *crazy hot*
All of HHS' sauces are either fermented for a minimum of two weeks, or incorporate fresh ingredients with a fermented brine. Then at blending we usually add additional fresh ingredients to balance the fermented flavor.

MoMo
Our flagship sauce, with a taste unlike any other. This sauce is exclusively made from mango and manzaño peppers, and is mild to most palates but because of the different version of capsaicin in the manzaño, some people find it much warmer. For most, it is sweet and tangy and slightly hot.
Rated PG.

OMG!!!!!!!
OMG!!!!!!! is HHS' take on a verde sauce. It is made with a fermented base (lemons, jalapeños, serranos, green habaneros, tomatillos, and chayote) with additional fresh jalapeños, manzaños, and chayote, as well as a bunch of black garlic. It is both familiar as a verde while being different with the fermented flavors coming through.
