Ingredients

Sea salt

The little magic powder from the ocean. It's used to enhance the flavor of food and create tension with spice. It gives a salty taste and a unique depth.
Vinegar

A vinegar with class. It's used for its lively, tangy flavor and white wine notes, which pair perfectly with chili peppers. It adds finesse and depth.

Shallots

Milder and more subtle than onions, they bring a delicate onion flavor and a hint of garlic. They are used for their finesse, which allows them to create a delicate aromatic base without masking other flavors, perfect for sauces that play on nuances.

Producers

Quebec

Our sauces are made entirely in Montreal, using peppers grown right here in Quebec. Each bottle embodies our passion for authentic flavor, well-balanced heat, and respect for the terroir. It's our way of bottling the richness of Quebec, one pepper at a time.
