Tasting notes

The Piri-Piri sauce by Lengua de Fuego wins you over from the very first bite with its remarkable balance between heat and freshness. The Scotch Bonnet chili brings a lively yet controlled intensity, quickly softened by a subtle hint of brown sugar sweetness. The tangy notes of lime awaken the palate, while garlic, cumin, and annatto provide a warm and exotic aromatic depth.

On the palate, the texture is smooth, the attack is bold, then evolves into a long, slightly spicy and very fragrant finish. A vibrant, indulgent, and perfectly balanced sauce.
