Tabasco Is Releasing A Hot Sauce Twenty Times Spicier Than The Original

Tabasco is an American classic of hot sauces, founded in 1868 in Louisiana. Generations have loved and adored the spicy pepper sauce on everything from scrambled eggs to Bloody Marys and micheladas. With eight total varieties including Garlic Pepper Sauce and Habañero Pepper Sauce already beloved, Tabasco continues to add to its lineup, and we are not prepared for its latest offering: the hottest hot sauce yet.

The Scorpion Sauce, a limited edition condiment with a name just as fiery as its ingredients, combines scorpion peppers with guava, pineapple, and a dash of original Tabasco. The result is “a tangy sauce with untamed heat and a touch of Caribbean sweetness,” according to a press release. And — here’s the part where you grab for milk and crackers — it’s nearly 20 times hotter than the Original Red Sauce.
