European hot sauce alternative to Tabasco? (self.buyfromeu)

Hello everyone!

Does anyone know of a good European alternative to Tabasco hot sauce that comes from Europe? Also, an online store where I could buy this sauce would be great.

Many thanks in advance!

not European but Thai:
Sriracha
There's multiple variants, but they're all much better than Tabasco.

My favorite are extra garlic (brown cap), extra hot (black cap) and creamy mild (orange cap).

I would not recommend Sriracha as an alternative to Tobasco. They’re two entirely different things, for entirely different purposes. Sriracha is delicious, but it’s not gonna give the vinegar-y lil kick that Tobasco does.

I mean, they should have Sriracha too because it's also delicious, but they're not really comparable sauces.

Are the Sriracha style sauces you buy in the west, really Thai? IIRC one brand that them popular is a US company.

Just checked, the brand I use, uni-eagle, is German.
