California Hot Sauce Creations ~ Thai'd Down
We went a little over-the-top on this one with grilled pineapples, coconut cream, and a heap of fresh aromatics. As the complexities of this Thai inspired goodness register with your face, a blasting wave of heat arrives fashionably late to the party. When a spice level of "10" at your local Thai spot just isn't cutting it, "Thai'd Down" will take you the rest of the way. (and maybe even a bit further) Get you some!

Tim started the Paulman Acre brand in 2014 when he ran away from the tech industry to join the circus. At that time, his sauces were considered "outsider art" and well outside the norm which meant no co-packer in their right minds would want to produce them to spec. So he bootstrapped the entire Paulman Acre production line one bottle at a time and, like any self-reliant, displaced hillbilly would do, he figured it out on his own.
In 2018, Tim and Jason joined forces to become California Hot Sauce Solutions where the years of "figuring it out" were put to good use. In addition to manufacturing both "Paulman Acre" and "J's Small Batch", California Hot Sauce Solutions manufactures for dozens of West Coast hot sauce brands.
Tim remains committed to the art of sauce-making and continues to oversee the Paulman Acre brand. In addition to the core line-up of sauces, Paulman Acre releases several small-batch seasonal offerings each year. Get 'em when you can -- they're usually pretty amazing.
