[REVIEW] Red Clipper Green Papaya Mango & Pimento
Open this funky bottle, and before you chow down, take a really good sniff of this sauce, you're hit with the fruity papaya and mango aromas that get your mouth-watering. This is a chunky-style sauce with lots of pieces of fruit and chilli that you can bite straight into.

ChilliBOM Red Box Summer 2019
Bang those bongos, this Red Box showcases three hot sauces from Fiji, Australia and NZ. Fiji Fire is the only known hot sauce made with the native Fijian Bongo chilli, and club members are the first to get exclusive access to this hot sauce in Australia. Kaitaia Fire is the last of our NZ features for 2019 and this one is a personal favourite, so I really hope you enjoy it, and if you haven’t been introduced to the Red Clipper range of hot sauces then say hello to the Habanero and Green Papaya. BONGO! BONGO! BONGO!

ChilliBOM Red Box Spring 2019
We had to physically break out of the box for this edition of the ChilliBOM Red Box! Mark from The Chilli Effect has been a long-time friend of ChilliBOM, and we have been wanting to feature this sauce for a while now, but it just wouldn’t fit no matter how hard we tried, so while Mark and I were wracking our brains over a beer (or two) to work out how to make this work, Mark came up with the great idea of just sending it outside the box…genius…and the ‘Out of the Box’ edition was born.

[REVIEW] The Chilli Effect Wizard's Lingering Burn
The inclusion of this hot sauce in the Spring 2019 Red Box is a long time coming! We started talking about it in late 2016 and the issue was that the bottle is too big for the ChilliBOM Red Box was built to hold the regular 150ml hot sauce bottles. So we tossed around a few ideas and then it got too hard then just decided over a beer one day not to even put it in the box and send it separately outside the box...pretty smart hey...well it shouldn't have taken almost 3 years to work it out! What really matters was getting this sauce in the hands of the ChilliBOMers as it is a cracking hot sauce.

[REVIEW] Diablo Sunrise Ghost
I first discovered Diablo Sunrise at the inaugural Sydney Chilli Festival in Parramatta in September 2018. I had already been "killed" that morning by a super hot Butch T sauce so I couldn't even taste the sauces, or anything else, that day (I know I'm a wimp right!)
