Private Selection Peruvian Aji Amarillo Hot Sauce
Two down and two to go in the so-called "Culinary Hot Sauce" line from the higher end of the two Kroger store brands. This one is by far the worst-tasting of all of them, with spices far more reminiscent of something for baking, but a flavor profile that is frankly just not very good. Both plain, by itself and in conjunction with being utilized as a grill sauce, the taste, while not outright foul, does tend to detract from food...when enough of it is used to be noticeable. It's hard to determine exactly what they were going for here as this things missed on everything I tried it on. There is very precious little heat to be had and it's hard to see where this would fit in anywhere. Overall, even as an experiment, this was simply not worth getting or even using.
Bottom line: This is a near-total bust. Not the worst sauce I've had, but I bailed on it well before finishing the bottle and so far, this is the worst of the new Private Selection Culinary line.
