This is my favorite hot sauce not only for the heat, which you get used to in time and find yourself adding more and more, but for it’s fantastic flavor. Most hot sauces sacrifice flavor for heat but Matouk’s Calypso sauce strikes the perfect balance.
At first I thought it wasn’t that hot. Then I tried it again and BAM, it really gets to you. It is very comparable to Lottie’s Yellow. Definitely worth buying.
This sauce has a great flavor and plenty of heat. I always keep several variety of hot sauces around but I use this one the most. This is my all time favorite sauce!
This stuff is hands down my favorite sauce. The waitress suggested it when I was in New Orleans at Margaritaville. Never heard of it before, but it’s great since it’s not vinegarry at all, but has a heat to it that’s real smooth. Spent the next day searching the Quarter until I found it at the 20th or so shop. Hard to find so get it here!
I have been looking for the perfect hot sauce for years and this January 2006 at a restaurant in St. Maarten I ordered a tuna steak and they gave me Matouk’s Hot Salsa. I was in heaven and took 3 bottles home with me. I have since ordered several more! I love this sauce!!!!
This stuff is mighty fine sauce! The taste is really good, just enough heat to get things going, and goes on just about everything. Especially good on breakfast omelettes and skillets. Had this stuff at Margaritaville in N’awlins, and took hours of searching to find the stuff retailwise. Excellent!

Best hot sauce I have come across. Met the Calypso at Tangelo’s in St. Petersburg FL in the late eighties. My friends love it!
