Da Bomb Beyond Insanity Scoville & Spiciness
Da Bomb has made a name for itself as one of the go-to super hot sauces. This stuff hits harder than almost anything we’ve tried, with a lasting burn. That is kind of the point of this sauce – to get a reaction. We’ve seen plenty of great reactions from celebrities trying a wing with Da Bomb slathered on thick.
The simple fact is that Da Bomb Beyond Insanity comes in at 135,600 SHUs on the Scoville Scale. However, we feel that the experience feels much hotter than some sauces rated at 1M SHUs or higher. Simply put, this is one of the hottest hot sauces we have reviewed to date. The heat comes more from pepper extract than from actual superhot peppers, but it is still pretty shocking to try.
Tip: Don’t eat a lot of this hot sauce. A small dab is plenty to experience the heat. If you want to suffer, try more, but don’t say we didn’t warn you!
Is Da Bomb Hot Sauce Any Good?
Despite some of the negative comments that we have seen about this sauce on the internet, it isn’t ALL bad. For instance, this sauce would be excellent for making homemade bear repellent. Or, you could use it to seek revenge on your worst enemy and make an insanely hot salsa for their cookout. Other than that, I don’t think this sauce will play a part in any great recipes.
The aroma is actually not too bad on Da Bomb Beyond Insanity. It smells very pepper-forward with some citrus notes. But then comes the actual flavor. As soon as it hits your mouth, an explosion of fiery heat hits hard. The flavors are harsh and strange with too much citrus and not enough pepper. What pepper flavor does make it though tastes strange, likely due to the use of pepper extract, or “natural pepper flavor.”
Though the flavor is nothing great, that isn’t really the purpose for this sauce. It’s meant to be a gag, a challenge, or a prank for friends to play around with. It isn’t so hot that you’ll fear for death, but you’ll definitely be sweating, and that’s the whole point.
