FIREWALKER Hot Sauce Company
What you need to know
FIREWALKER Hot Sauce Company is Franco Donohue's Asheville hot sauce brand, and it started as a first batch cooked up in a small apartment kitchen here in town. It's still made in small batches with locally grown produce, all vegan and gluten free with no added sugar. The lineup runs from mild to seriously hot: Green Glow, the Original (citrus and garlic with a habanero kick), Classy Cayenne, Mango Blaze, SmokeJumper Chipotle, and Running with the Reaper, built on the Carolina Reaper. There's no storefront. Grab a bottle at the French Broad Food Co-op, Ingles, Hickory Nut Gap Farm or Mother Ocean Seafood Market, or order bottles, cases and $25 gift boxes on their website.
