I was at work and the chef offered me a small piece of duck with some mysterious sauce on it. I’m always happy to try the food because this is a 5-star restaurant. Well he got me this time. We aren’t talking about one drop, the whole thing was dripping in pure cap, probably more like 20-30 drops.
It hit me right away that it was hot sauce, and quite hot at that (i’m weak when it comes to hot sauce) so I laughed and went on my way. About 30 seconds later, i was darting at Mach III for water, and of course water did no good. I had to take ten minutes off work to try and cool down. The water cools it down while you’re drinking it but as soon as you swallow, the heat flares up basically beyond barable. Good stuff, I’m gonna have to buy a bottle to use on my prankster brother

While this stuff is hot, it is not as hot as I expected. I have some really, really hot wings at a local pub that only four people in my entire city can handle and Pure Cap was comparable. Regardless, if you don’t have a lot of experience with hot stuff, be very, very careful. This is not for the faint hearted.

One of my friends had some Pure Cap and he offered me 5 dollars to put one drop on my tounge. Because i didnt know how hot it was, i tried it. When it touched my tounge, my nose started to run and nothing would cool off my throat it was awesome this stuff is great.

This is my first hot sauce (I do not count the Tabasco sauce which everyone has in their fridge)
What can I say ? , it is HOT , but I expected much more ?
It is supposed to be 200 times hotter than Tabasco sauce (which is ~2500 Scoville) but it seemed (only) 10 times hotter.
Does it mean it is only ~25,000 scoville and not 500,000 ? I can?t say.
Anyway it was fun . I?ll try it again and again.

Not bad to warm up your Chilibeans but… I expected more… 4 drops in a plate are fine. It doesn’t change the flavour of your cooking and this is a bonus for me. All you get is the heat coming up on your neck, ears and face. I reccomend it !

while we were waiting for our dinner at a florida bbq joint, my teenage nephew, Jacob was searching through the hot sauces on the shelf and brought this sauce over to our table. He claims to like hot sauce but is truly a novice and didn’t heed the skull & crossbones. After a drop on his tongue the burn was so intense that he was up from the table and off to CVS for Maalox. He had terrible stomach cramps as this sauce worked like Draino through his system. In the end, he had explosive diarrhea in my mom’s lovely, white tiled bathroom!! Anyway, we think he learned something but he’s a teenager, so he’ll probably forget what it was and do something stupid like this again next week!

Hahaha! That was fun Firebyrd. I’m Dan from that story. Yeah… when I got this stuff in my eyes, it was nothing but absolute agony. I thought my eyeballs were melting. I almost passed out from the pain.

One day, my good chum Dan came over with our friend Perry to my house on the first day of winter break. Dan had a little ?surprise? for us that we weren?t quite prepared for. Dan removed from his backpack, a small orange container, containing an eye dropper in a small vial. The vile was encased in warning sign with several skulls and crossbones. The bottle said ?Pure Cap. 100 times hotter than jalape?o peppers.? I would be lying if I said I wasn?t skeptical to try this stuff. Dan explained how his brother from college lent it to him. Dan removed the lid and removed the vial, and then took off the dropper. Naturally, we smelled before we dared do anything else. The bottle reeked of a heavy odor of vegetable oil, and something else we couldn?t quite put our finger on. Hesitantly, Perry took the dropper and put not one, but TWO drops on his finger! Unprecedented! I said he was crazy, in that not one of us had even tried one drop yet. Much to his dismay but to my enjoyment, he swallowed. After a few seconds, the coughing began, which was then followed by the phrases, ?Oh my God!? ?Water,? and ?I?m going to kill you Dan.? I was anxious, nervous, and curious all at once. Perry was drinking water and bitching about how it didn?t help as I took only ONE drop. Tolerable, but definitely hotter than anything I had previously had. The spiciness is actually an aftertaste since the first thing you taste is nothing but a smelly vegetable oil. It becomes somewhat vaporous, but then spreads like wild fire. Liquid like water or even your own saliva only spreads the flame, as Perry mentioned when he felt the pain go to the back of his throat from the water. Learning from his mistake, I instead, only took very deep breaths until I was alleviated. Dan?s turn, and sorry to be anticlimactic, but he was only like, ?Oh man that?s hot!? while slapping the counter. But here?s where it gets good.
While we all sat down for a rousing round of watching Pulp Fiction, Dan haphazardly rubbed his eyes with his slightly dyed finger? oh crap indeed. Within seconds, Dan was bawling and panicking, not knowing what to do about the terrible burning sensation in his right eye. I told the idiot to run to my kitchen sink and wash it out. After about five minutes of waiting for him to return, we decided to check up on him. Sure enough, he was still washing his eye out from under the sink. Dan described the pain with the following words, ?MY EYE!!!!! IT HURTS SOOOOOO MUCH!!! MY EYE IS BURNING!!! OH MY GOD!! MAKE IT STOP!!!!!!!!!! AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!? to put it bluntly. I could do nothing but watch him suffer. After about ANOTHER ten minutes of eye washing with no reprieve, I was considering calling the hospital. Yes, it was that serious. After all, he got capsaicin in his eye! But I called my Dad instead who said there was nothing to do but constantly wash his eye, for at least a half hour. Soon, for unexplained reasons, the pain spread to his other eye. I?m assuming the runoff went into his other eye with his head under the faucet. Well, eventually the pain subsided and Dan was, more or less, back to normal. But a later discovery was made when we found out that Dan had lost his ability to cry. That?s right, he can no longer produce tears. Just ask him. He may want to sometimes, but he is now incapable. I?m guessing again that the capsaicin did some serious damage to his tear ducts. But don?t think any of this discouraged us. We still handle the stuff responsibly and love to put it on an abundance of foods. How responsible? Ok, so Dan idiotically took a whole third of the dropper, which equates to 20 drops, at once. Another time he rubbed some in his eye two more times accidentally, AND had some get into a paper cut he got letting it directly enter his bloodstream. Big deal. This stuff is great and we will continue to utilize it.

We just bought a bottle of Pure Cap for our 17 year old son, who is constantly bragging how much he loves hot sauce, and how nothing is too hot for him.
He mixed one drop in some ketchup, put the ketchup on a hamburger roll, and about 4 bites into the bun, he had to run out of the room, and threw up outside on our deck!! WE WIN!!!! We love this stuff.~~ muahahahahha Two Evil Parents

Pure Cap Hot Sauce: I love this stuff! A friend at work gave me his bottle when he found out it was way too hot for him. He knew I love the hot stuff and let me have it. From that day forward, I haven’t used another hot sauce! I use it in about everything. I put a drop or two in my favorite mustard to give it a kick, and my favorite food I love to use it in is potato salad! I’m tellin ya, it’s the bomb!
For those saying it doesn’t have any flavor are wrong, it has a fantastic flavor!
But it definitely isn’t for the weak hearted. I give it five out of five chilis!

Pure Cap Hot Sauce: As a full time bartender I get a lot of customers who ask me for a bloody mary and then quickly state that I can’t make it hot enough for them. 1 drop is normally fine for a 12 oz glass and will normally give wicked results (and really shuts up most people)

On a bet I did 1/2 a dropper of this stuff..straight….WOW. Oh my god this is hot. I left work 1 hour after lunch sicker then a dog. Had to drink 1 cup of olive oil just to suppress the fire in my gut, and that didn’t work all that well. For the amount of cash I got for it I’d do it again though.

This is a very good capsaicin additive for those of you who love hot food, but are unwilling to commit to the almost inevitable *ss-searing consequence of its beguiling temptation!

Oh my god, my friendand I just had our friend place two drops on his tounge (for ten dollars)… oh my god. It was the greatest thing in the world. We just had everything settle down and he gave us some great quotes like, “when i was drooling, i thought that i was bleeding out of my mouth” and, “oh shit, when this comes out dude, your going to get hemmroids.”..”oh fuck”.

Adding a dropper full of this to a bottle of Death Sauce makes the perfect hot sauce IMHO. One drop on your tongue is also great when you are just craving the burn.

As a writer for http://www.curezone.com, I’ve taken a lot of Cayenne and cayenne type herbs. This is a good product. The heat is very good and the taste is pleasant.
I wish it were alcohol based (its in vege oil) as the dropper tends to drip quickly after squeezing.
Great product.

Very hot. I had some on my finger and touched my forhead and it burned and made me sweat constantly. As a joke a friend put a full squirt in another freinds baked beans and when he ate it, his throat closed up and he had to go to the hospital. This stuff is extremely hot and should not be taken lightly like it was here.

we love this stuff. we gave one bottle away to a guy that brags about eating any pepper grown. he took a cracker with cheese and put about 3 drops on it, popped the whole thing into his mouth. his entire face started turning red, and his bald head was sweating up a storm. it was the funniest thing i had seen in a long time. you all should know not to put something like hot sauce on your tongue unless you’ve already tasted it. this stuff rules when used correctly!

I tried some as a dare. I thought how HOT could it possibly be. So I tried 3 drops on a cracker. And then OH-MY-GOSH I thought I was going to die. My face turned pale and my lips turned purple. It took 15 min. for it to cool off. (Warning avoid getting in eyes- will cause serious pain)

i ate some on air at a radio station this morning… it was so extreme… it took my voice away, and i couldn’t say anything for a good 30 seconds…
i guess it would have something to do with the fact i put 5 or 6 drops on a small bit of tortilla…
oh well… it was fun!

I have never had any pure cap but i just ordered some. I am expecting to get something hotter than Dave’s. But this stuff has a 500,000 scoville heat rating! So, I am expecting to get burned. I’ve never really tasted anything hotter than a habanero, so this will be a new thing for me. I hope I like it, wish me luck!

The bottle don’t lie it is pure. I like the fact that its hot but its hot with good flavor! The guy i race with was talking how he likes HOT food i showed him this let him read the bottle. SO HE SAID WOULD TAKE 2 DROPS ON HIS TONGUE FOR $10.00 WITH NOTHING TO DRINK FOR 5 MINUTES! THAT WAS BETTER THAN STAND UP COMIC REVIEW …….

Hmmmm, this is exactly as advertised. I made my own hot sauce using local peppers (Taiwan), but was disapointed with the heat (flavor is good, but the heat is a slow in coming but lasts–I wanted something that hit you hard up front, then lingered for a while). I added a dropper full of this stuff to about a quart of my concoction and came up with Satan’s Nectar. Massive hit up front with a slow, lingering burn that lasts for hours. Milk and peanuts won’t help. It is perfect because I wanted the natural flavor of the fresh peppers to come through, didn’t change the flavor (much). I list the taste as Hevenly because it HAS no (or very little) taste.
When I get back to Seattle, I’m gonna finally get my revenge on Gene at Dixie’s BBQ in Bellevue (if you like hot and haven’t been there, go if you are in the area).

I got a bottle of Pure Cap as a Christmas gift this year (2002). I’d never had any experience w/ a true “hot sauce,” so I had no real idea what 500,000 meant on the Scoville scale. All I knew is that I enjoy spicy foods. I didn’t realize that the average Habenero pepper has a max of ‘only’ about 300,000.
Ignoring the warning on the bottle, I put a small drop on my finger and touched it to my tounge. I felt nothing for 2 seconds, and then it hit me. I stumbled backwards, crashing into the wall, and then ran forward again to drink as much milk as I could pour into a glass.
It’s hot. I’m going to put a drop or two into some ‘normal’ taco hot sauce tonight and spice up my tacos.
Enjoy.

This stuff was my first expierience with truly HOT sauces (food additives) I can take Habanero’s, Jalapenos, Cayenne, wasabi. all day long, but this stuff burns like no other. I put 1 drop on my tounge and that seemed to burn forever. I then put 3 drops in a 5 quart crock full of chili and had all my friends sweating. I’m going to order a bottle of my own now. Great Stuff!

A friend of mine had a bottle of this stuff. At a party, someone accidentally dropped the bottle. After picking up the broken pieces of glass, my friend’s hands were blistered for a week.
At a local cajun store, you have to sign a disclaimer to buy this stuff.
