Business Update; I wanted to get the word out to everyone that I greatly appreciate all the business over the many years since I went into commercial production, a HUGE THANK YOU to everyone that has purchased and enjoyed Herman’s Hot Sauce! I am retiring from the work force and decided to step away from the hot sauce business at the same time. My decision to stop production is a tough one to make and I feel like I am letting everyone down but it is time. I can list a lot of costly reasons that helped me to this decision but they all lead to the same outcome. This has never been a money making business but it was a labor of love delivering a great product to everyone. I will not have any Nitro 2.0 or Caribbean Red sauce but I do still have bottles of Jalapeno and the Jalapeno Thick and Chunky in stock. Around the start of 2025 I will be shutting down the website but you will still be able to email me with any questions you may have.
Thanks again to everyone who helped me through the years in getting the word out about our Hot Sauce. Herman HHSauce
Herman’s Gourmet Hot Sauce’s will change the way you think about specialty and the standard store bought hot sauces. There are so many choices out there from green sauces to super hot paste type sauces that once bought may sit on a shelf and only get used a few times. Not with Herman’s! We have created our sauces and have worked off feedback since the beginning. Our Feedback page speaks for itself, these sauces are made to share with your friends and family. Our main objective is to make a sauce that you can cook with by adding it to your favorite recipes or you can also put it on your favorite fast foods, the uses are endless. Many have been known to take Herman’s into their favorite restaurants!
We are based out of Vienna, Ohio. During the winter months of 2014/15 I was busy taking a course to obtain my canning license so that I would be able to produce my sauces locally. This year I rented the Incubator Kitchen down in Youngstown Ohio so that I would be able to make my sauces close to home. This helps keep my per bottle cost down so that everyone can enjoy each one of our sauces. If you have heard the buzz we are now up to 4 great tasting sauces. Herman’s Original, Nitro 2.0, Jalapeno, and our Jalapeno Thick & Chunky!
Making these 4 sauces requires a lot of peppers, please take a look at our photo gallery to see what it takes to keep up on our production. Our hot sauce recipes speak for themselves. We have a style and flavor to excite everyone’s taste buds!
