Hand-made, small-batch, artisan hot sauce. Made locally in Denver.
Buffet for Sheetar:
A funky, complex combination of dark fruits (plums, blackberries) and hot peppers. Rated R.
The Burning:
Our more complex take on a mango habanero sauce. Rated PG-13.
MoMo:
A combination of manzaño peppers and mango, this one is sweet but with a sneaky mild to medium heat. Rated PG.
Pazuzu:
A combination of various fermented flavors come together to an earthy, slightly sweet, hot, and very complex purple sauce. Rated R.
Shutteracha:
Our take on traditional sriracha sauce, with a few mild twists of our own. Use it in place of ketchup on everything. Rated PG.
Matool’s Hammer:
Red New Mexican chilis, superhots, and black cherries and blackberries are enhanced by fresh and black garlic for a deep, roasty heat that builds and lingers. The official sauce of the movie The Stink of Flesh.
Profondo Rosso:
This sauce has a varied, building heat from red jalapeño, manzaño, and carolina reaper peppers, balanced with sweetness from strawberries and raspberries, and finished with roasted and black garlic for a underlying umami flavor.
Monolith: Red
One of two collaborations with Monolith Brewing in Denver, this is a hotter version of our Shutteracha, which is an Americanized take on a classic Thai-style sriracha sauce.
Monolith: Yellow
Our second collaboration with Monolith brewing in Denver, this is a hotter version of MoMo with the addition of lemons and habanero peppers to give it a kick!
Alpha-21 is a collaboration with filmmaker J.R. Bookwalter for his film Side Effects May Vary, an icky-sticky social satire that substitutes the "Atomic hysteria" of the 50's with the recent pandemic, and fills it with plenty of oozy gore. This sauce is an extra hot version of our verde sauce, OMG!!!!!!!, and has additional yellow habanero and yellow ghost peppers on top of that base.
Rated R.
Sweets for the Sweet is a version of our sauce Black is Beautiful, with a different stout in the brine. It is not a very sweet sauce, as most of the fruit goes into the ferment. It has a deep roasty flavor from chocolate habaneros and the stout beer, as well as some savory tartness from black cherries and blackberries, and a umami backbone from black garlic.
Rated R.
OMG!!!!!!! is HHS' take on a verde sauce. It is made with a fermented base (lemons, jalapeños, serranos, green manzaños, 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 citrus base flavors coming through.
Rated PG.

Dellamorte ("of death") is a sauce to show off the dangerous side of Horrifying Hot Sauce. Like all our sauces, it is focused on flavor first, but packs an extreme punch. This sauce was made to show off the fruity and floral flavor of Carolina Reaper peppers that is often hidden by its extreme heat. Dellamorte starts slow with an opening of plums and reaper flavor before the heat kicks in, and continues kicking for quite a while. A quote from a person who taste tested at an event: "Who hurt you?"
Our NC-17 sauces are wax-dipped. There is a video on our Instagram on how to open them, or if you'd prefer no wax just let us know when ordering.
