Original vs. X

Both start with pure honey and chile de Árbol peppers. The difference is how much pepper presence you want in the bite.

CR Hot Honey original bottle

CR Hot Honey

Sweet first. Heat second.

Our original chef-crafted hot honey is made by slowly infusing pure honey with chile de Árbol peppers for a smooth, balanced heat that builds without overpowering the food.

The sweetness hits first, followed by a warm finish that pairs perfectly with cheese boards, grilled chicken, pizza, biscuits, roasted vegetables, and more.

We keep our infusion temperatures low and controlled to preserve the natural flavor of the honey while extracting the rich, layered heat of the peppers.

Think: sweet first, heat second, flavor always.

CR Hot Honey X bottle

CR Hot Honey X

Bigger flavor. Stronger finish.

CR Hot Honey X was designed for bigger, richer foods that can stand up to more heat.

Instead of only infusing the peppers, we blend ultra-fine chile de Árbol pepper particles directly back into the honey. That creates a deeper, longer-lasting heat experience that holds its own against fatty foods like pepperoni pizza, wings, burgers, fried chicken, and loaded sandwiches.

The science is simple: fats naturally soften spice. Rich foods can absorb and mute heat quickly, which is why many hot sauces disappear on heavier meals.

It’s not about extreme heat. It’s about balance, depth, and staying present in every bite.
