Barbaro Mojo Piñazo Cuban Hot Sauce - A Flavorful Punch for Every Meal

Also commonly searched as "Pinazo" (without the ñ accent), same Cuban hot sauce, made with pineapple, habanero, and Carolina Reaper.

Piñazo™ Cuban Hot Sauce is pineapple plus Carolina Reaper, built on a Cuban mojo criollo base. The name means "punch" in Spanish, and that's what it delivers: tropical sweetness up front, Reaper underneath. Award-winning, vegan, gluten-free, made in small batches in Miami.

What's in it

The base is mojo criollo, the sour-orange Cuban marinade your abuela uses for lechón. We blend that with datterini tomatoes (Italian heirlooms, naturally sweet), real pineapple juice and chunks, Fresno peppers, Habanero peppers, and a small amount of Carolina Reaper. The Reaper carries the heat. The pineapple keeps it interesting.

Award-winning

Piñazo™ took 2nd Place in the People's Choice Awards at ZestFest 2024. Voted on by hot sauce fans, not a judging panel.
