Two chefs set off on a journey to make the most delicious hot sauce using the elusive Aji Rocoto pepper. Years of tasting and searching led us to a small farm in Ecuador where we ferment the Rocoto and mix it with a unique coastal plantain vinegar, creating an unmatched farm to flavor experience.

This limited batch Hot Sauce is made with just 3 natural ingredients with incomparable flavor.

Only 3 Ingredients

The highest quality Andean ingredients sourced from a small farm in Ecuador where the mountains meet the sea.

Fermented Flavors

Our main ingredient is a regeneratively-grown fermented Rocoto pepper. The fermentation provides the most memorable flavor you've ever had in a hot sauce.

Chef-Crafted For 11 Years

Our journey began over a decade ago, fueled by our shared love for Aji Rocoto, a rare chile from Peru. After years of searching, we found a sustainable family farm in Ecuador to bring this bold flavor to life.

Regeneratively Grown

We use a holistic farming approach that aims to improve soil health, enhance biodiversity, and sequester carbon - ultimately creating a more resilient and productive agricultural system.

We put the industry under the microscope

Trent and team whipped up a winner. I have 20-30 different hot sauces on hand at a time and this has become my go-to. Nice heat but it takes a back seat to flavor. FANTASTIC!!!!

This hot sauce is great! it reminds me of the flavors of my country's cuisine, I haven't had a rocoto hot sauce this flavorful that taste as fresh and pure as this one with the a perfect mild heat so it doesn't burn my mouth. Also it has no additive nor preservative, crazy good!!

As a hot sauce enthusiast, I've enjoyed the spectrum from the Srirachas to the Cholula's, Tabasco to the Tapatios, Truffs to where the Hot Ones collection meets Melinda's, and yet, there is a special place for Spice Tribe's Roco Hot sauce.

It's probably the cleanest hot sauce in the market with only 3 ingredients.
