Apostle Hot Sauce was conceived in 2018 following Mat and Lydia's move to Paekākāriki. Mat had been concocting delicious sauces for years, so in an attempt to get to know their community and started selling them at their local market. With an overwhelmingly positive response from their new friends and neighbours we decided they had to do more. Apostle hot sauce have a strong passion for using local ingredients, the peppers they use are hand picked and the Kawakawa leaves are from their own garden. They also refuse to use any artificial colours, preservatives, flavours or thickeners, instead relying on fresh ingredients to create a vibrant range of sauces.
