A year and a day ago, in last year’s December Craft Hot Sauce newsletter, we reflected on a big decade for the hot sauce industry. A year later, it feels like another decade has already passed! 

While 2020 is a year many would like to leave behind, it's worth looking back and reflecting on it because the craft hot sauce world has grown and changed a ton!

Hey there, It’s a stressful and uncertain time, and I hope you’re staying safe. Today we're going to keep it 100% craft hot sauce and share some stories and articles to change the pace 😀 This month I wanted to start off with the datil pepper! Have you heard of it?

Hi there, What happens when four hot sauce makers apply for a trademark? That's not the start of a bad joke but the topic of the latest Craft Hot Sauce podcast! I interviewed several hot sauce makers, and we all spoke about our past experiences and lessons learned from registering a trademark for a hot sauce brand...

We heard from some really cool craft hot sauce companies leading the charge on the Hot Sauce Revolution. Howler Monkey Sauces, a Jacksonville Beach company with Panama influences and Taylor's Ultimate, an artisanal hot sauce company in Miami

October was a fun month for Craft Hot Sauce, hearing from lots of new hot sauce and chili companies and sharing our content with many more new chiliheads. Brian of CHS got to travel to Berlin for a weekend and met with Jonathan O'Reilly of Crazy Bastard Sauce. Our Craft Hot Sauce newsletter followers are the first ones to hear the first Craft Hot Sauce Podcast.

Happy September, and I hope you are all enjoying the end of a nice summer. As I write this from Dublin, Ireland, I am currently experiencing the 3rd season of the day, which is some extreme rain (we get all 4 seasons in one day!).

Over at Craft Hot Sauce, we have ambitious plans for sharing more educational content on hot sauce, the industry, and craft hot sauce companies, while connecting and expanding our hot sauce following.
