Ghost Scream Original Hot Sauce

Hello again! Today we're going to take a taste of Ghost Scream Original Hot Sauce. I honestly picked it out because I really liked the name when I first read it. That and I infer from the name that this is a ghost pepper sauce, and of those I'm particularly fond. Let's check it out!
Ghost Scream is owned by Chef Matthew Sisson and his partner Deandra. They combined Matthew's skill in the kitchen with Deandra's considerable design skills to bring to life the Ghost Scream brand. They both have a taste for the spicy foods and peppers and wanted a way to bring bold and spicy flavors to the fore. Matthew said in a Saute Magazine interview that the skills gained in working in some of the finest food establishments in the world enabled himself and Deandra to take an idea and transform it into pure flavor.
The label is fun. It features a depiction of a bearded man with his mouth open, presumably screaming. Surrounding the face is a lace-like design with skulls dotting the image. "Ghost Scream" is along the top and "Hot Sauce" is over the faces chin. To the right side of the face is the word "Hot" as if to reinforce the fact that this is a hot sauce. I have to admit that this excites me a bit. This has a nice red color to it with a feeling of yellow and brown mixed in. The consistency isn't remarkably thick but it isn't thin like a Louisiana sauce either. It has a nice peppery sediment as well. It should be noted that there is no pour protector here, so pour with care.
This tastes slightly sweet at the front, Upon lingering longer in the mouth the garlic comes alive. It finishes with a definite pepper/garden taste, working well with the garlic. I like the layers being tasted individually, and then swirling together. This has a well crafted flavor profile.
Ghost Scream Original Hot Sauce has a bite to it, but it's not off the charts. With that said, watch out if it hits the back of the throat. I got surprised that way. The lip burn is notable in that it stays tingling the lips for a surprisingly long amount of time. The heat on the tongue stayed mostly in the center and not, to my surprise, on  the tip.
Ghost Scream Original Hot Sauce has a great flavor and an enjoyable heat. And at $8.00 for 5.5 ounces of product I can see this becoming a frequently used table sauce in my household. I definitely recommend it. Until next time!
