YUM!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] YUM!!!! This sauce packs the perfect mixture of flavor and spice into chicken, pork, and steak. I even used it to make a dressing for a Tex mex salad which was delicious added to Ranch. I will be repurchasing!

Red or Green?
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Here in New Mexico, the official state question is, "Red or Green?" Seriously, we have such a thing, and it refers to peppers. Whether you reside in the southwest US or not, it's good to have options in life. I'll grant you, the original red Tabasco sauce has been a classic staple since the 19th century. However, it's time to show green, which is jalapeño & poblano in this instance, some love. In exchange for a sincere review, I was provided a complimentary sample of Cholula® Green Pepper Hot Sauce. This novel condiment took my eggs from mediocrity to genuine tastiness. I appreciate its versatility, and can envision enhancing chicken, potatoes, cream gravy, beans, and even more if you're an ingenuitive foodie. One could add it to basically any household staple. It doesn't solely function as a kick of spice, but also has a nuanced flavor profile that precedes the conspicuous, but not overpowering, heat element. This commendable compliment has traits admirable in sauces and people; it's both stable and has longevity. My suggestion to resolve the original quandary is, "Both." Why limit ourselves? Variety is the spice of life.

Smoky Flavor with the Perfect Amount of Heat
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really enjoyed Cholula Chipotle Hot Sauce and would definitely recommend it to anyone who likes a flavorful hot sauce with a smoky kick. One of my favorite things about this sauce is that it adds plenty of flavor without being overwhelmingly spicy. The chipotle flavor gives it a rich, smoky taste that makes food more interesting while still allowing the flavor of the meal to come through. I first tried it on tacos, and it was a great addition. It paired especially well with the seasonings and toppings, adding a slightly smoky, tangy flavor that made the tacos taste even better. I also used it on chicken and really enjoyed the combination. The sauce added extra flavor and a little heat without making the chicken too spicy to enjoy. The consistency was also good and made it easy to drizzle over food without making a mess. I appreciate that Cholula Chipotle Hot Sauce is versatile enough to use on different foods. It would be great on burritos, quesadillas, eggs, grilled meats, or even mixed into sauces and marinades. Overall, I was very pleased with this product. The flavor is delicious, smoky, and slightly spicy without being overpowering. It is a great option for people who enjoy hot sauce but prefer flavor and balance rather than extreme heat. After trying it on tacos and chicken, I can definitely see myself using it regularly and experimenting with it on other meals. I would happily purchase Cholula Chipotle Hot Sauce again and recommend giving it a try.

Not better than the original
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you like smokiness without out a lot of heat then this is the perfect sauce . However the smokiness is slightly overpowering what makes Cholula its distinct flavor. Would definitely continue to stick to the original as a go to sauce for every day use

Great taste with a little spice
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I do enjoy this hot sauce- it adds a nice flavor with just a little spice! It's nice to add a little flavor to tacos or taco bowls, as well as adding a little something extra to pizza or nachos. It's just enough of a kick to spice things up but not overwhelmingly spicy. Overall a nice mild hot sauce!

It's alright
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The taste is BBQ with a hint of smokey and a good amount of spicy, it is great on a pork sandwich that needs a kick. Or with rice with some delicious chicken or fajitas & tortilla. I could also put it on a tortilla chip.

Good sauce
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The hot sauce is really good for when you make some trash nachos. Or taco bell, it pairs nice and the chipotle taste is so good. But its definitely my favorite on taco bell tacos and jack in the box tacos.

Flavorful good mild hot sauce option
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I enjoyed this. It had a nice heat but was not overpowering to where I couldn't taste my food. It goes well on tacos, bowls, eggs and other dishes. My husband also liked it.

Pretty good hot sauce
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Cholula Green Pepper Hot Sauce is pretty good, but it's not the best green pepper hot sauce I've had. It has a nice tangy jalapeño flavor, but there is almost no heat to it at all. The sauce is pretty runny, so it's easy to accidentally pour way too much onto your eggs or tacos. Overall, it's a decent sauce to have around, but I wouldn't go out of my way to buy it again.

Amazing!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received Cholula Chipotle Hot Sauce as a free sample through the BzzAgent sampling program. I really enjoyed the smoky chipotle flavor and the perfect amount of heat. It adds a nice kick without overpowering the food, and the smoky flavor makes it a great. I loved using it on my eggs and chicken. I also liked that the sauce had plenty of flavor without being excessively spicy. Overall, I would definitely recommend Cholula® Chipotle Hot Sauce to anyone who enjoys a flavorful hot sauce with a smoky twist.

Ingredients
I used to love the stuff but you added the acetic acid and natural flavors. It was fine without it. without the right amount of vinegar it doesn't ferment like it used to. Between heavy metals found in your seasoning and changing recipes to gain more profit. You lost a regular customer.

McCormick acquired with ingredient changes
McCormick acquired with ingredient changes with low quality ingredients such as "natural flavors" and acetic acid changing the flavor as a watery sour condiment. Back to Tabasco.

good but not great
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was sent this for an honest review so here it goes… yes it's flavorful and not overly spicy (which I love) but I feel like it's missing something, not quite sure what exactly but it has potential :)

Cholula hot sauce
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ive tried all kinds of different flavors of cholula hot sauce before. The Chipotle has a subtle heat. Its not overpowering and it has a great flavor. I have has others that are too much hear that overpowers the flavor. This has a great balance of heat and flavor. Not only does it go great on tacos but great on breakfast foods as well hash browns and eggs .

My New Everyday Sauce
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I picked up Cholula's Chipotle sauce and it's basically been on everything since. Started with eggs at breakfast, then it made its way onto tacos, grain bowls, even weeknight dinners... it's that versatile. What I love is the smoky flavor without overwhelming heat. It's got a nice kick but isn't so spicy that it takes over the dish, which means I can add it to pretty much anything without worrying about it being too much. Honestly, this is replacing a bunch of other sauces in my rotation: barbecue sauce, chipotle adobo, even soy sauce. One bottle doing the work of several. Highly recommend if you want an easy way to add smoky depth to whatever you're cooking.

Nice 2nd
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm not sure if anything could ever beat the original Cholula hot sauce but this definitely is a close 2nd. We enjoyed it with our steak tacos but also used it on burgers one night as well. The smokey chipotle flavor works really well with beef dishes.

Love Cholula!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always loved Cholula hot sauce, and I was super excited to get a sample of this new flavor to try! Just like the original, this jalapeño and poblano sauce is bursting with flavor, but not scalding with heat.

Just the right amount of heat with great flavor
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My family and I tried this for the first time and were hooked. The quality of flavors and heat mixed was delicious. We added it to tacos, omelets, and even drizzled on chicken. Definitely buying
