Ida-Hot Habanero Pepper Hot Sauce - 5 oz

Bear Spray Idaho operates from Star, Idaho, and traces the wider Bear Spray brand’s story to a hot sauce kit experiment in 2019. The brand identifies Terry Holmes as its recipe creator and Christy as the person running Idaho operations. Its story centers on family, hard work and pepper flavor balanced with heat, bringing Alaska roots into an Idaho-focused range of sauces and seasoned snacks.

Ida-Hot Habanero Pepper Hot Sauce - 5 oz

Ida-Hot puts habanero-led flavor into a sauce the supplier describes as bright, savory and balanced. It sits between Ida-Mild and Ida-Hotter in the Ida lineup, making it an option for meals that call for a more pronounced pepper finish. Tacos, eggs, burgers, pizza and wings are among the supplier’s suggested pairings. The reference label lists a broader recipe than the front name alone suggests: ancho, chipotle, ghost pepper and Trinidad Scorpion pepper appear alongside habanero. It is a blended hot sauce, rather than a promise that habanero is the only pepper used.

Serving ideas

Add a little to a cooked taco filling at the table, spoon a small amount alongside eggs, or mix it into a separate portion of burger sauce. With pizza or wings, begin with a small serving and adjust to taste. A table-side bottle is useful when everyone shares the same meal but wants a different level of heat. Keep a plain portion of the food available during the first tasting so you can compare the sauce’s savory and pepper notes against the dish itself.

Ingredients and allergen information

Reference label ingredients: water, distilled vinegar, cider vinegar, spice, ground ancho pepper, ground chipotle pepper, ground habanero pepper, ground ghost pepper, ground Trinidad Scorpion peppers, xanthan gum. The pictured label is a reference for the named sauce; compare it with the actual current bottle before use. No gluten-free, allergen-free, organic, preservative-free or U.S.-grown ingredient claim is made. For help interpreting declarations, see the independent FDA guide to food allergen labels.

Storage and serving care

Follow the storage and handling directions on the bottle you receive. The available supplier information does not establish a product-specific refrigeration requirement, unopened shelf life or period for use after opening, so none is promised here. Keep the closure clean, use clean utensils if mixing a portion into another sauce, and retain the bottle label for ingredient checks. For a tasting, identify every bottle and keep each portion separate so guests can choose their own sauce.
