Naga Chilli Oil

I grew up on curries, the hotter the better. Used to love chilli sandwiches when I was a kid. A phall is the only thing that gives me pause but I usually manage to finish them (even though I end up with lips like Satch'mo). As someone else reported, this oil is between a vindaloo and a phall in hotness. It seems fairly innocuous at first but the heat soon builds up and keeps building up with every mouthful of food. The first chilli oil I have ever tried that is wickedly hot. In fact it is a bit too hot for slopping on everything every day. I keep it for mad days when I want a hit of fire. The Trinidad Scorpion by the same company is plenty warm enough. And if you want something to chuck liberally on food where it doesn't spread out very well and pools a bit (like a pizza or doner kebab) then the Naga oil is probably better. Anyway, I'm happy. Love it!

Its fiery and a bit smoky. Very nice! Will definitely buy again

This is straight up chilli in oil without the bits. If that’s what you’re looking for, this is the one. It’s got the heat and the carrier (olive oil) seems like a decent quality as well. The spice level is perfectly in line with what I would expect from a Naga oil. Maybe even a tad more than I expected - which was fantastic! I sort of wish it was a little more complex in flavor, but overall, it’s a good oil to complement lots of different dishes because it lacks complexity.

Hot. Very hot. Too much hot. I use it for pizza and was looking for very hot oil, but this one is actually too much. Would be good to rate on Scoville scale, but it would be, maybe, a 8/10 as much spicy.

Reading the reviews I got the impression that this oil might be hot. I wasn't expecting it to be very hot as most oils sold in the UK are pretty mundane. However Naga chillies are hot so I bought some. I am sorry to say that it is not hot, you will notice it as hot if you don't normally eat chillies, but if you eat chillies regularly this will be a gentle heat.

This chilli oil is lush - really nice olive oil with a proper kick of spice. It’s great to finally find properly hot and spicy oil to add to salads and dressings.

I think the flavour is amazing and the oil is (as there’s general consensus for amongst the reviewers) very hot. I'll be back for more when I run out. Edit: and I was, and unfortunately my next purchase was damaged in transport with oil seeping out. Amazon's bot refunded me, but it seems the bottles are a little too fragile for the shipping method. I'll try again, but I hate the idea of the potential for waste if buying more.

Limited heat, not fresh chilli. Tastes artificial -extract used
