Matouk’s Calypso Sauce Hot Sauce – 10 fl oz (300 mL)

A rhythm-driven Caribbean hot sauce with classic Scotch Bonnet heat and unmistakable island character.
Authentic Trinidad flavor • Pepper-forward • Table sauce royalty

Matouk’s Calypso Sauce Hot Sauce is one of the most distinctive sauces in the Matouk’s lineup—and one of the most versatile. Built on aged Scotch Bonnet peppers, this sauce delivers bold, confident heat balanced by savory spices and a smooth, spoonable texture that works just as well at the table as it does in the kitchen.

Unlike sweet Caribbean sauces, Calypso stays focused on pepper flavor and spice. The heat comes on strong but controlled, making it a favorite for everyday use across Trinidad and beyond. It’s lively, expressive, and unapologetically traditional—just like the music that inspired its name.

This is not a novelty sauce. It’s a culture sauce—made to be used often and generously.

⭐ Flavor Story
Calypso sauce reflects the heart of Trinidad—bold, expressive, and rooted in tradition. Scotch Bonnet peppers are aged and blended with classic spices to create a sauce that speaks clearly without excess sweetness or gimmicks. It’s the kind of sauce you’ll find on tables across the Caribbean, used daily, trusted, and respected.

⭐ Signature Recipe (Product-Specific)
Calypso Pepper Chicken Finish

This recipe works because of Calypso’s savory, pepper-forward profile—sweeter sauces won’t deliver the same result.

1. Grill or pan-sear chicken thighs with salt, black pepper, and garlic.

2. Rest the chicken for 2 minutes after cooking.

3. Spoon 1–2 teaspoons of Matouk’s Calypso Sauce directly over the hot chicken.

4. Finish with a squeeze of lime and serve with rice or fried plantains.

The sauce melts into the meat, delivering heat without overpowering the dish.

⭐ Pro Tip
Calypso shines as a table sauce. Keep it out during meals and let guests control their heat—this is how it’s traditionally used in Trinidad.
