AWARDS TIMELINE

ENTRIES

This year, we recieved hundreds of hot sauces, and narrowing them down to just 25 for our judges to sample was no easy task. Each year, we're blown away by the creativity from the makers—whether it's a clever twist on a classic or something entirely new, they never fail to surprise us.

JUDGES

On Sunday, 13th October, we'll be joined by five special guest judges. Each judge will be tasked with ranking five hot sauces based on three key features that we believe make a standout sauce: heat balance, flavour, and artwork. They'll rate each one from 1 to 5 in these categories.

WINNERS

The winners from each category will be featured in a Sauce Awards winners' box on our website, immortalised in hot sauce history with limited edition fact cards. They’ll also secure a lasting place in the hearts of sauce fiends everywhere, with bragging rights to match.
