Hello everyone!

Does anyone know of a good European alternative to Tabasco hot sauce that comes from Europe? Also, an online store where I could buy this sauce would be great.

Many thanks in advance!

Yeah, I was looking for something similar to the red Tabasco but I also like the BBQ or the Habanero sauces from that brand. Maybe there is something similar tasting for these ones?

The red Tabasco is a “Louisiana style” hot sauce which leans heavier on the vinegar than others.

The peppers are a unique cultivar called Tabasco, not WILDLY different from other capsicum frutescens but different enough to be known around the world. Tabasco peppers aren’t regional like hatch peppers but they’re probably one of the most widely known.

Their chipotle Tabasco is one of the best flavored sauces in the world IMO.

I don’t know what European brands there are that emulate the Louisiana style but I’d be worried about an exaggerated sugar and vinegar profile in them.

Your best bet, as a connoisseur of hot sauces myself, is just grab a cool or interesting looking bottle at your next trip and try em all.
