Saint Phillip - Roasted Capsicum & Chilli

This is a pre-order item and is due for dispatch at the start of August. Please note, orders containing pre-order items will be sent together.

A smoky, slow-roasted hot sauce made for everyday cooking, generous plates and things worth gathering around.

Saint Phillip combines roasted red capsicum, smoked chilli and caramelised onion to create a sauce with warmth, depth and gentle heat. The slow roasting brings sweetness and richness, while smoked paprika, cumin and black pepper add a savoury complexity that feels familiar from the very first taste.

Unlike sharper vinegar-forward hot sauces, Phillip is rounder and softer, balancing red wine vinegar and organic apple cider vinegar with roasted vegetables and subtle smoke. The result is a sauce that adds flavour as much as heat.

Why we chose this

We chose Saint Phillip because it feels equally at home on eggs and avocado as it does alongside roasted vegetables, grilled meat, tacos or a bowl of soup. It is the kind of bottle that slowly becomes part of everyday cooking.

Its smoky, savoury profile makes it especially versatile, offering warmth and depth rather than overwhelming heat. It is the sort of pantry staple that works for weeknight dinners, slow weekend breakfasts and generous tables shared with friends.

Ingredients

Red wine vinegar, roasted red capsicum (22.9%), organic apple cider vinegar, roasted chilli (15.27%), roasted onion, salt, smoked paprika, garlic powder, water, cumin, black pepper, brown sugar.
