On Jan. 18, 1868, McIlhenny sent a letter to a family friend in New York. Always a meticulous record keeper, he noted the contents in his correspondence logbook: âHu. Auchincloss, N.Y., thanking him for a Stanhope lens and a water-drop glass for my microscope. And sending him a bottle of my Tabasco pepper sauce.â. Those who received such gifts were so enthusiastic that McIlhenny resolved to bring his Tabasco sauce to market. That year, he planted a bumper crop of peppers. A year later, he sent 658 bottles of his sauce to grocers in New Orleans, where they sold for $1 apiece.
