Jerome Ghost Pepper

Love this place! Great staff and great customer service. You can sample almost anything. They have a nice variety of mild to very hot products. My favorite is their reaper hot sauce! A great find.

Very nice staff, it’s just that the place seemed… somewhat unfinished, or that the other half was used for storage… not a whole lot of variety.
I’m a sucker for supporting local business and shopping the places I visit, there is nothing technically wrong with this place, it just needs someone to slap it awake and make me want to try some salsas and shit.
Get a few samplers out, engage your customer a bit… yall know what to do.

The photos look similar to what I saw but I remember the place being named Sedona Pepper Company. If this is the wrong place, I can’t find the right one.
Bought a Mango Habanero Salsa. Prices were listed without tax. Quite delicious. Nice guy. Gives samples of stuff before buying as well as this odd but good honey stuff to cool your mouth. I would have stayed longer but tour buses are tour buses.

This place was very awesome! They have ton’s of selections of different peppers, and spices. I was pretty amazed by the display inside this store. The woman working there had a ton of knowledge when it can to the different peppers and how they are prepared for all the sauces.
I love the fact you can taste test all the sauces for free. I tried the Carolina Reaper pepper sauce, and the ghost pepper sauce. They were both hella hot! Love it!
The prices for the sauces is very reasonible for sure. If you ever find yourself in the Jerome area, you should definietly consider stopping in here.

You close before we arrive and you open after we leave? Please extend your hours if you plan to catch any of the 1 day tourists.

Great stuff from here and the lady that waited on us was the best!

Received our shipment of sauces/​salsas. Should have purchased the 10+++ heat sauce. I guess I was expecting tears in the eyes hot, but it wasn’t the case. Already finished the first bottle of ghost pepper salsa and just trying the medium (black bean) Black bean is actually very mild and we ended up adding the hot sauce to it for more heat.
Perhaps my expectations for a very hot sauce was too high. I would love to have hotter sauces and salsas from this establishment.

We simply cannot resist salsas or hot pepper sauce of any kind, so coming into Ghost Pepper was a no-​brainer. After sampling several hotter than hot salsas, we ended up buying a couple of small jars. My intent was to bring them back to Oakland and use them during a party, but we ended up eating them all before before we left Arizona!
Check it out, especially if you are into super spicy food, because this stuff is muy caliente!

This is a very new store in Jerome, AZ and oh my goodness, I cannnot tell you how excited I am to find this place. I am a super chili /​pepper head and love to find the hottest, most spicy herbs and peppers in the world to enjoy. My husband and I were heading up the stairway to Clark street from Caduceus Cellars when I noticed the big red sign that said, «Ghost Peppers». I have been searching everywhere for somewhere that might have this pepper. I ran acorss the street, into the store and proceeded to drill the poor employee on their acquisition and ability to maintain an inventory on this ghost aka Jolokia peppers. She brought out several taste tests for my husband and I and waited very patiently as we perused the store.
It is small and quaint, yet very organnized and we ended up buying several items. I only give this a foud because: 1. It is far away. I live in Phoenix and its in Jerome. 2. I would love to see an online ordering capability for replenishing my stock and that is not quite yet set up.
I highly recommend this joint for the fellow pepperheads out there passing through Jerome. I am already half way through my stashh I bought on 12÷23÷11 and it is only 12÷27÷11. lol. I even bought some hot sauces for my neighbor and father in law. They are going to love them. They have everything from non-​spicy, to blow your head off hot. Of course, Im the ultra extremist in my spicy tastes, so you know what I went for. And Im not disappointed at all.
Recommended highly!

I love salsa, but am a bit of a wuss when it comes to heat, but knew I needed to check out this store before I venture back down into the Valley. As you enter the store your eyes are on sensory overload due the bright Mexican inspired colors on the wall, but it gets you super excited for what you are about to encounter. My friend and I were in awe of the extensive collection of hot sauce, salsa and barbecue sauces that aligned the shelves in the two little rooms that makeup this store. You will also notice some local artwork (including this really cool aluminum mirror), pottery, and glassware that are available for purchase.
We were warmly welcomed by Marc, the owner, and quickly introduced to his store that carries multiple brands of hot sauce and salsa that are available in mild, medium and hot. I let him know of my inability to tolerate severe heat and Marc gladly told me which products to stay away from, which would be the ghost peppers that are available in quite a few jars. We were then lead to the front of the store where he offers complimentary tastings and details about each salsa we were sampling.
As my friend and I were munching away and savoring every delicious bite of salsa we let Marc know how happy we were that we decided to change our road trip plan and head to Jerome. Marc then casually enlightened us as to way Jerome is way better then that six letter S word north of Jerome and we couldn’t help but agree. We ended up purchasing three different salsas. A Mango Chipotle that is sweet and tasty, the Fire Roasted Salsa that has a bit of a kick, but nothing I can’t handle, and the Black Bean that reminds you of mixing the salsa and re-​fried beans when you are at a Mexican restaurant.
Definitely check this place out for great salsas and conversation. Thanks Marc!
