At the time of writing, I have a pleasant tingle in my mouth. No, not a miniature bell, but the after effect of splashing CaJohns 'Vicious Viper' on my Spaghetti Bolognese.
I acquired Vicious Viper after scanning the Hot- Headz site for the most aggressive looking, sadistic bottle of liquid I could find. I didn't want one with a farting man on, or a massive chilli, not this time at least. I saw the evil, ready-to-pounce viper on the bottle and I fell head over heels.
So there I am, standing in front of my meal, bottle poised at the ready. I shake my wrist a fair few times, and there's a good 4 dollops of the sauce scattered around the Bolognese.
The first taste is an explosion of flavour, which is hardly surprising considering the colossal diversity of ingredients (habanero, banana, guava and mango juices, etc). The heat is fairly intense, but not intense enough to stop the flavours shining through, complimenting the sauce perfectly. This is not to downplay the heat, however. Sweat will drip down your face if you have enough of this. But unlike some other sauces I've tried, flavour is not sacrificed for heat, rather the two are interspersed perfectly, blending an almost tropical tang with a warm sting.
Vicious Viper is certainly not one for the faint hearted, but for those Alpha (fe)males out there, it's a gorgeous addition to any sauce, meaty or otherwise.
