Uncle Mungos

Uncle Mungo's is Australian hot sauce with a wicked sense of humour and a genuine appetite for pain — the reaper-and-skull labels aren't for show, and neither is the heat behind them.

The range runs from fruity all-rounders through proper four-pepper superhots, alongside a full lineup of chicken salts, all-purpose seasonings, crispy chilli oils and a habanero ketchup, all made in Australia for wings, tacos, curries, chips, burgers and fried eggs that need waking up.

Start with the best-selling Covid-19, a four-pepper hit of Carolina Reaper, Bhut Jolokia, Scorpion and Habanero rated 19/10, or ease in with the Mango Carolina Reaper — Uncle Mungo's original recipe and still the one that started it all.

For the truly committed, the Covid-19 Delta Variant is lab tested at 3.3 million SHU — a genuine dare, not a dinner, built for heat seekers who know exactly what they're doing and keep a glass of milk close.

Twenty-five-plus sauces, salts, seasonings and oils deep, from everyday chicken salt to extract-grade fire — handle with care, and don't say we didn't warn you.
