OUR STORY
UNCLE CHESTER'S Hot Sauce has been a family recipe for generations.
Our sauce originated in Trinidad and Tobago of the Caribbean but took a hop, skip, and a jump and landed in the Quinte Region of Eastern Ontario.
Utilizing local, farm fresh ingredients, we make our sauces in small batches with extreme care; just like those who came before us.
