Since Huy Fong completely fucked over his pepper suppliers every batch is now wildly different so you never know how spicy a bottle is going to be!

Yea, what a dickhead. I never understand the mentality of a successful collaboration going to someones head getting them to think, let me just squeeze the supplier of this critical ingredient.

Case study as to why you can't let a single customer monopolize your business income.

I am constantly surprised by the variation between bottles, I thought it was just my perception!

oh man, I had heard there were shortages, but I never knew there was drama that went as deep as it did. That was a fun read.

How does it comparte to original huy fong, before the pepper dust up?

Hard to say exactly without a side by side. It is very close to my recollection, maybe slightly less sweet and a bit more chili pepper and garlic flavor. Just as spicy.
