GROWING GREATNESS
In 1868, Edmund McIlhenny mixed up his own personal pepper sauce recipe with three simple ingredients: fully aged red peppers, salt from Avery Island, Louisiana, and high-quality distilled vinegar.
THE PEPPERS
Following company tradition, all of our peppers are picked by hand. Pickers ensure ripeness by comparing the color of the peppers to a small wooden dowel, “le petit bâton rouge,” painted the preferred hue of TABASCO® Brand red.
A member of the McIlhenny family personally selects the best plants in the field during harvest. The pepper seeds from those plants are treated and dried for use in the following year’s crop.
AGED FOR UP TO THREE YEARS
Our pepper mash is aged and perfected in white oak barrels for up to three years. This process creates the subtle flavors unique to TABASCO® Sauce. Every batch of pepper mash is personally inspected by a McIlhenny family member to ensure the highest quality for our sauces.
