Meet the maker

Ben's kitchen.
Ben's rules.

Ben created Ben's Lab as a home for the hot sauces he develops at Triple Brew. Part chef's instinct, part patient experimentation — every recipe is adjusted, tasted and put to work in the kitchen.

“The heat gets your attention. The flavour is what brings you back.”

— Ben, chef & sauce alchemist
  1. I

    Source

    Chillies chosen for flavour as much as fire — fruit, smoke and sweetness come first.

  2. II

    Formulate

    Each recipe is tested batch after batch until the heat and the taste are in balance.

  3. III

    Bottle

    Filled, sealed and labelled by hand at Triple Brew, in small numbers.
