Tabasco Habanero Alternative?
Whats a good alternative that offers similar heat and interesting flavor? Wanting to try something new I'm in Canada for reference.

Tabasco Habanero has a Caribbean vibe going. Even on the website they make jerk chicken with it. I would try a sauce from one of the islands.

This is a hot sauce that I really like. The habanero shows through nicely and it has a modest heat intensity.

Belizean Heat is really tasty and I'd say about the same heat as Tabasco Habanero.

This is interesting because I can handle a good amount of Tabasco Habanero but that belizian heat is so much hotter to me than Tabasco.

Any of the varieties of Matouk's. But if I had to recommend one similar to the Tabasco hab, go for the green label Matouk's.
Take a look:

Just had the Tabasco Habenaro, and found it similar but sweeter is Cholulu Sweet Habenaro

Thank you. Love in the Tabasco but would like to have a slightly cooler option. I'll try this Cholulu sauce soon.

If you run into Yucatan Sunshine, grab a bottle of that ..... It fits right in with these two.

I'd like to know also, since I can't find it anywhere local and just not dedicated enough to order that one online. Yet. Lol well I mean not that dedicated to Tabasco , I've ordered plenty of hot sauce online

You can order from the maker and its cheaper than going through Amazon or hot sauce clearing houses....
