Nectar is breaking new ground by being the first hot sauce... without the heat. Made from a so-called "vegetarian" Caribbean chili, a close cousin of the Habanero but grown for its flavor rather than its heat, it reveals all the aromatic richness of the chili with a unique sweetness.

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

It is used for its lively, tangy taste and its notes of white wine, which pair perfectly with chili peppers. It adds finesse and depth.

Spices

This is the heart of our recipes. Spices are used for their complexity and ability to create a symphony of flavors. We combine them to create unique profiles that take us on a journey in a single bite, while providing unforgettable warmth and length.
