This sauce isn't that good for someone who really likes things hot. I eat Naga Jolokia sauce on a daily basis and this doesn't quite reach the same heat level and the taste is really bad in comparison. I'm not a fan of the extract flavor and I suggest trying a Naga Jolokia sauce if eating on an individual meal. I haven't tried this in a pot of food so maybe in that sense it works well but that's not what I use it for.
