Our story
2 bottles. Then 3. Then 100,000.
Mang Kaloy Hotsauce is a small Filipino manufacturer from Sibulan, Negros Oriental, on a mission to put bold, honest, homegrown heat on every dining table.
How it started
It began the way most good things in the Philippines do — in a home kitchen, with family recipes, a lot of labuyo, and friends brave enough to taste-test.
At first we sold just 2, then 3, then 4 bottles at a time. Word spread through our neighbors in Sibulan, then through Dumaguete, then online. Each batch was cooked, bottled and labeled by hand.
Today the line-up includes fruit-based sauces made with Carabao mango, smoked pineapple and bungulan banana; fermented sauces built on the Carolina Reaper; chili oils, garlic crunch, and a rotating cast of limited editions.
What we stand for
Small batch, always
We cook in small runs so every bottle tastes the way it should — fresh, bright and punchy.
Proudly local
We source Filipino fruit and peppers whenever we can and support the farmers who grow them.
Flavor first, then fire
Heat should make food better, not just hurt. Every sauce is built to complement a meal.
