The Last Dab Apollo

Once again, Hot Ones has graced us with an all new Last Dab hot sauce. This one has been deemed The Last Dab Apollo, owing to the all new pepper variety used in the sauce.

The Apollo pepper is an illusive and mysterious new pepper variety bred by, you guessed it, Smokin’ Ed Currie. Ed has been involved with several of the recent Last Dab sauces and is as famous as they come in the hot pepper community.

Currie is known for creating the Carolina Reaper pepper, the world’s hottest (officially recognized) pepper, though there is some  about it.

He also created the  pepper, the primary heat source for the previous  hot sauce. That sauce was seriously hot, but not as violently spicy as the original Reaper
