Hot chili pepper sauce is said to be Mexico because their cuisine is famous for its bite and spice. A little hot sauce is added in most recipes in their dishes. Certain hot sauces including more flavorsome types such as Chipolata heavy sauces originate from Mexico which give a unique individual flavor.

The evidence to indicate that The Aztecs located in Southern Mexico were using a form of hot chili sauce not for food purposes for some medicines. This means that the modern day hot chili sauce intended for eating was not from Mexico.

Edmund McIllhenny is the person who started the cogs in the hot sauce machine rolling by using his fascination with gardening blooming it seems he went about getting his mitts on some rare pepper seeds to grow on Avery Island near New Orleans. After noticing and enjoy the unique taste from the peppers the prosperity of the Worcestershire Sauce he aimed to make a sauce based on his peppers.

He succeeded in his quest on 1868 and made what can be seen as the best true modern hot sauce which nearly all people still know and love today. Edmund was residing in a town called Tabasco at that time, from where Tabasco Sauce was actually named. It was from the success of Tabasco that lots of other imitators stemming from the Deep South of America started to pop-up including Trappey’s Hot Sauce who had previously been an employee of Edmund.
