Big Jim’s Barrel Aged Buffalo Hot Sauce takes a classic and pushes it somewhere new. This is the only buffalo sauce in the world made with chillies aged in hand-selected Scottish whisky barrels—bringing an unmistakable depth to the heat. Cayenne and habanero form the backbone, while aged Chinese vinegar and fresh lemon zest add tang and lift.

The whisky barrel ageing doesn’t just give it pedigree—it transforms the flavour. What you get is a sauce with sharpness, heat, and a long, smoky finish that holds its own in any kitchen. It’s ideal for wings (mixed 1:1 with butter), burritos, grilled veg, or anything in need of a punch that’s more than just spice.

Founded by a former surgical robotics engineer turned flavour obsessive, Big Jim’s Kitchen isn’t about novelty heat. It’s about serious flavour that starts conversations. From small-batch production to a commitment to bold, authentic food, this sauce is part of a bigger mission—to make meals more meaningful and moments more memorable.

For heat-seekers who care about craft, this is the one.
