We are often asked how hot the Chili Mafia hot sauces are compared to the Tabasco sauces.\nThe question is justified, as Tabasco sauces have been the benchmark for all hot sauces for years.\nThe most famous hot sauces are produced on Avery Island in Louisiana, a hot sauce region.\nThe McIlhenny Company offers a whole range of TABASCO\u00ae sauces. <\/p>\n\n
The history of Tabasco hot sauces began ten years before the Civil War, when the company founder received Tabasco chilli seeds from a friend who had brought them back from the Mexican state of the same name.\nEven today, the world-famous sauces are made from the fruits of Tabasco chili plants, which are mostly grown in Central and South America.\nThe peppers are very hot in themselves and easily reach 40,000 SHU on the Scoville scale. <\/p>\n\n
As is so often the case, the name of the scale, Scoville, is the surname of the inventor.\nIn 1912, the pharmacist Wilbur Scoville developed a method to determine the capsaicin content in chilies.\nJust to give you an idea: Pure capsaicin reaches 16 million Scoville, and one of the hottest chili varieties reaches almost 2.5 million SHU.\nBut even Bhut Jolokia chilies with their one million Scoville are not meant to be enjoyed.\nFor most people, 500 to 10,000 Scoville is considered pleasant.\nBut for you, probably one of the chili junkies, the fun only starts at 70,000 Scoville units. <\/p>\n\n
Scoville diluted chilies with water until a group of “volunteer” testers (a little joke) could no longer taste any heat.\nThe amount of water added, measured in drops, is converted into Scoville Heat Units (SHU).\nThat’s why we’re talking about 4,000 Scoville Units for the mild heat of the classic Tabasco Original Red Sauce and millions for the hottest chili fruits (Pepper X \/ Carolina Reaper). <\/p>\n\n
The simplest answer to the question is to compare the Scoville values.\nHow many Scoville units does Tabasco have?\nHow many Scoville units do the Chili Mafia hot sauces have?\nWe found the Scoville values of the TABASCO\u00ae sauces on the Internet, we determined or calculated the Scoville values of our sauces ourselves. <\/p>\n\n
Would you like to buy the sauces?\nWe have linked each sauce to a store: You can buy the Chilia Mafia and some Tabasco sauces on 1 of our hot sauces stores (Pikantista.com or Chili-saucen.com) and for some Tabasco sauces that we do not offer we have included eiffiliate links.\n(marked with a **).\nYou will then be redirected to Amazon, we receive about 2% of the sales without the price changing for you.\nThere you will find quantity discounts for the sauces. <\/p>\n\n
