About The Pepper Ninja Hot Sauce

The Pepper Ninja Hot Sauce was founded by Derek Landfair, a lifelong spice lover with a simple mission: create hot sauces that lead with flavor and finish with fire. What started as a backyard passion for crafting bold, balanced sauces quickly grew into a small-batch brand known for its unique sweet-heat profiles, clean ingredients, and unforgettable character. Every Pepper Ninja sauce is handcrafted in the USA using real fruits, fresh peppers, and carefully layered flavors. The goal has always been the same—make sauces that taste incredible first, then bring the heat. This “Flavor First. Fire Later.” philosophy has earned a loyal following among everyday food lovers and serious heat seekers alike. The brand gained national recognition when Ninja Napalm was featured on Hot Ones, introducing Pepper Ninja to chiliheads around the world and proving that a small, independent sauce maker could stand alongside the biggest names in heat. Today, The Pepper Ninja Hot Sauce is carried in specialty markets, butcher shops, and gourmet stores across the U.S. and internationally. Each bottle delivers bold flavor, personality, and craftsmanship—designed to stand out on the shelf, spark conversation, and keep customers coming back for more. Flavor First. Fire Later. Small batch. Big personality. Built for repeat buyers.Read their story
