Made with Sustainably-Grown Peppers

The sweet, smoky heat in our HOT TAR® Hot Malt Vinegar is created using our own sustainably-grown, chocolate habanero peppers. A chocolate-colored variation of the traditional orange habanero pepper, these peppers have a deep flavor profile that you won't find in any other hot pepper. We carefully remove all the membrane and seeds from the peppers so that they provide the best flavor with just the right amount of heat.

The chocolate habanero originated in Jamaica, but we've been growing our own since 1991. We carefully and responsibly maintain our own seed stock to ensure the highest quality fruits year after year. We also grow the peppers with sustainable growing practices, ensuring that no harmful pesticides or other synthetic products are used to grow these delicious hot peppers.
