No kidding. It feels so good to hear bubbling coming from my coat closet. Like, something is being created in there.

i still have to send it to Greg Dulli though....he wanted to see it before i proceeded, although he said he wouldn't veto anyting at this point....fyi, quote in the upper left is the opening line from the song 'number nine', by the twilight singers...inspiration for the sauce and name. *let the shitting a brick commence*

Label looks beautiful.
And that's fucking awesome that you got Dulli involved with it.

nah. the deal was, I could use the two lines of lyrics on the label. that's about it.
i havent mentioned/asked/ or discussed marketing it to whigs or twilight singers fans, and i probably won't.
once the he tastes the sauce, and gauge his reaction, I'll toss the idea out there, if he is cool with it...and maybe they can sell it on their next tour? way too far down the line to consider.....getting this stuff together is a process enough....that'd be just gravy....

I can't wait to taste this one. Also, I'm out of the ketchup, so I'll have to remedy that.

So, every holiday season I try and do some sort of promotion with all proceeds going to charity. Usually, the Susan G Komen Breast Cancer Research Center, on behalf of my mom who passed away almost 13 years ago.....So here I go again....

I created two special labels for my BURN sauce...Gave them a X-Mas feel....Package will include a bottle of my red habanero BURN sauce, and a special edition green version of BURN (only available thru the Jan 13th).

I will post a proper picture tomorrow....They will be put in a special sauce holder with festive paper and each bottle will have a steel crow attached to the bottle. Here is a preview of the labels. Cost will be $24 and that includes shipping. 100% of the proceeds will goto charity and your name will be included in the check....consider it a write-off. Consider it your good deed for the year.....I usually limit promotions to make them more special, but in times of charity, I'll produce as many as needed if people are int he giving spirit!

Here are the labels...

The GF picked this up for me.
It's some wicked stuff. One drop will make any meal borderline too spicy to consume.
Not a lot of flavor, just heat -- that despite clearing my sinuses I still enjoy. I think this is my Scoville limit (3.5 million).
Your "Burn" is more to my liking.

Thanks...Agreed. :rawk:

Been a hot sauce fan my whole life and never got into the 'whose dick is biggest and can down the hottest sauce?"

I'd try em as a goof, but exactly.....one drop and I'm done.....then the bottle would sit untouched till i decided to just toss it.

Now I'm on the business end of things, i want people to come back and buy more. It's all about the flavor.....my 'The Devil His Due' sauce has ghost peppers and that is probably as hot as I'll go.....Will definitely command your attention, but the flavor will keep you coming back for more....

I see one is supposed to contact you directly regarding purchases.
Here's an opportunity to list your stock since your order page doesn't reflect it...

Still sorting all the details at the moment...
finishing up on a new 'real' website...
t-shirt in the works.
promo materials for stores/restaraunts.

first impressions are key. i'd love to blitz the world with what i feel are truly tasty sauces, i want all the puzzle pieces in place first...

anyways... i got a red habanero sauce named BURN; a ghost pepper with apple sauce & pears I call THE DEVIL HIS DUE; a blackberry habanero sauce called BLACKBERY BELLE; a ketchup infused with the native Floridian Datil pepper called GEMINIAH's FIERY CATSUP, and this summer I will be unleashing a banana pepper/banana mash desert hot sauce called SINDERYELLA.

crow@geminicrow.com if anyone is interested in trying stuff before the official launch! :) will do it cheaper than when i am ready to roll....looking for feedback and creating a buzz as of now!

I sent an inquiry through the web form on Saturday without reply.
Whether that's intended or not, I thought I'd let you know.
