Glad you asked. Pique (pronounced "PEE-kay") is a vinegar-based hot sauce enhanced with culantro, onions, garlic, and of course sweet and hot peppers.
Pique is uniquely Caribbean. Uniquely Puerto Rican.
Pique Artesanal Santa Clara enhances the flavors of meat, poultry, seafood, soups & broths, pizza, burgers, beans, quesadillas... even Bloody Marys. Simply substitute that other sauce.
Our Pique Artesanal isn't just a 164 year old recipe. Our ingredients are harvested in the fertile, coffee-rich soil of the Hacienda and chosen for their freshness and quality. The extreme care taken in combining these ingredients is as much a reflection of our heritage and dedication to this gourmet hot sauce as as it is an homage to our ancestors.
A few drops of Pique Artesanal go a long way...
Enjoy the way our gourmet hot sauce enhances the flavor of your favorite dishes.
