Let each drop speak louder than the regret you feel when your favourite pub doesn’t have hot sauce. Thousand Apologies isn’t just slap-you-in-the-face heat; it’s the promise of a love affair you didn’t know you needed. Maybe you like it bright, maybe you crave unexpected citrus tones, or the soulful depth of umami. Or maybe you do want a slap—we got you. Our sauces don’t demand attention; they earn it—layer by layer, bite by bite. You'll see.
What’ll it be? A few of our fanciful bestsellers, made with Australian natives and locally sourced ingredients.
Twelve months, countless bottles, and a shelf full of awards for this hot little brand.

Wonderful sauces! Family enjoyed them ALL on our Christmas tacos! Unique flavours from a skillful blending of Scoville scores and great Aussie bush fruits. NOT overwhelmed by heat, but well-integrated. Outstanding products for all tastes and tolerances!
