Our Favorite Louisiana Hot Sauce Now Makes Hot Honey

Hot honey continues to dominate, well, everything. We thought that we might be over swicy flavors by now, but oh, no: They’re still featuring in every other food release, and it feels like they’ll be doing so until someone figures out the next combination of tastes (/sensations) that we can all divert our attention to.

To be totally honest, though, we can roll our eyes at hot honey being everywhere – but when a brand that we know and trust steps up to the plate to offer its own version, then we’re all ears. Turns out we’re still interested, and our favorite Louisiana hot sauce brand’s release of one confirms it. Let’s discuss.

And That Brand Is…

The Original Louisiana Brand Hot Sauce. Yep: The hot sauce that we dubbed the best Louisiana-style option out there (we rated it 10/10 back in 2024) has just announced that it’s launching The Original Louisiana Brand Hot Honey – and it feels like it’s going to have all the nuance heritage of the brand’s flagship offer. “Grounded in our Louisiana heritage, we combined our signature blend of peppers, a little vinegar and a dash of salt with pure, golden amber honey, using the simple, quality ingredients we’re known for,” said brand manager Dionne Encarnacion in a press release. “Our Louisiana Hot Honey’s signature Southern glow comes from real flakes of our hot sauce peppers suspended in the honey, creating a rich, flavor-forward finish that is true to our roots and soul of the bayou.”

The press release also notes that The Original Louisiana Brand Hot Sauce is a relatively rare entrant into the hot honey world, as a legacy hot sauce maker that brings a lot of expertise to the table. This counts for a lot, to be honest. Hot honey too often falls into a fairly basic, layerless combination of sweet and heat, and if anyone’s going to make something dynamic and multifaceted, it’ll be these folks. 

When Is It Available?

Now! The Original Louisiana Brand Hot Sauce can be found through the brand’s foodservice and retail partners now. Food service providers can also place orders at shfoodspro.com for the sauce in various sizes. We can hopefully expect a wider rollout as time goes on.
