This was a place that my fiancé and I planned to visit on our trip to Belize! We love spicy food and are collector of hot sauces so when we found out we were staying down the road (at Bocawina Rainforest Resort, HIGHLY recommend) we knew we would make a stop here. Our tour guide, Dion (?) was so knowledgable and you could tell was proud to be a part of a locally made treasure. We were able to see all of the factory and kitchen and then back to the front for the tastings! There is about a dozen various flavors and they even have jams, pepper jellies and fruit wine!

If you are in the area, this little gem is totally worth it!…

While grocery stores often have most of the flavors, the full range is available at the factory, whose shop has other mementos for sale as well.…

We stopped at Marie Sharp's when rain canceled some outdoor activities when traveling through Belize. We had been eating Marie Sharp's every day, so was nice to see where it was made.

You can get quality sauces here for dirt cheap, less than $2.00 US a bottle. The tour is interesting to, which takes about a half hour.
