El Yucateco
El Yucateco is a traditional Mexican brand that has been producing authentic hot sauces based on the famous habanero chilli for over 50 years. What began in 1968 as a small family business in the heart of the Yucatán region has developed into a globally recognised brand with a strong reputation – particularly in the USA, Canada and increasingly also in Europe and other markets.
The El Yucateco product range combines powerful aromas with balanced flavours and authentic Mexican heat. The range includes several distinctive varieties, including classic red and green habanero sauces and other varieties.
