Il mandrino anche da Montezuma era una punta piacevole con la sua nuova creazione quando ho parlato appena alcuni mesi fa con lui al mercato del nord. Il prodotto in questione è il suo sale di Smokey. Non essere che molto di un ventilatore del sale io è stato preoccupato che non potrei dare questo ad una revisione giusta, ma dopo alcuni mesi di prova, ritengo che ho questa revisione qualificata in esso è l'obiettività.
Montezuma: Sale di Smokey Ingredienti: Sale, Cile, Chipotle, polveri rosse di Chilie, aglio, cipolla, spezie, paprica, buccia d'arancia, peperone dolce verde.
La prima cosa che devo commentare sopra è il formato. Per il prezzo e la quantità di prodotto che ricevete, questa cosa è un affare! È lle 5 once whopping ed in 3 mesi di uso ho consumato soltanto 1/32 della bottiglia!! È inoltre piacevole da vedere che tutti gli ingredienti attraverso la plastica libera ed i fori di vers sono appena abbastanza grandi lasciano gli ingredienti fuori ad una velocità adatta.
Il primo gusto è, naturalmente, sale. Come ho detto, non sono troppo acuto su quello, ma questo è che cosa il prodotto è supposto per avere un sapore come. Su dopo viene un certo aglio (che tesse dentro e fuori da tutti i sapori) allora il gusto di chipotle mescolato con la buccia d'arancia. Rilevo un suggerimento leggero di rosmarino e la paprica ed io possono assagiare il peperone dolce verde (perchè ha usato che non saprò mai). Per quanto riguarda il calore, ci realmente non sono c'è ne. È fiamma eccessiva di sapore questo volta.
Now, I cooked with this….a lot. What I’ve learned is you have to be careful with the products usage. Too little and it doesn’t do much. Too much and your screwed, it’s too salty to eat (I did that on two separate occasions when making Famous Passow Pizza). You have to work with it to find that right balance and when you hit it, this really makes things shine with flavor.
Pairs quite well with pork tenderloin and kicks the flavor into overdrive in burrito/taco meat (ground beef). Definitely cook with this, skip using it as a table salt type product. Nicely done, Chuck.

Sounds like a great product. After checking out the website and seeing this I have no intention of being a customer:
http://www.montezumabrand.com/Trademark%20Violators.htm
It’s one thing to protect your copyrights and trademarks, but it’s just obnoxious to have a page like that on your web site. It’s like it’s a litigation company instead of a hot sauce company.
Oh well, maybe I’m missing out, but I think I will use other ’smokey chipotle’ products.

Dave, I think it’s going a little (ok, maybe a lot) overboard to have something like that on their site, but it wouldn’t prevent me from being a customer of them. I just think he needs to de-emphasize all the trademark/legal stuff so that it’s far less prominent.
On a semi-related note, I think Chuck needs to have someone redesign his site, pronto. That thing is hideous to look at.

It is interesting to observe over the past half decade that a select few take issue with an individual, a really small company, protecting their property rights, yet these same persons have no issue whatsoever with larger entities and international conglomerates trampling property rights and walking all over people.
It is also interesting that these same persons have no idea what, and that, it takes years/decades to build a brand, if ever, and that the most valuable property right developed by a business are its intangibles. Where would McDonald’s, Tabasco, Michelin, Nike, etc., all be if not for their protection of property rights.
The government provides a means to protect, however, it falls extremely short on an ability to cost-effectively protect those rights. There is no small claims court for trademark and patent violators.
Also, you just don’t wlk in and “get” a trademark. It takes years most times and oftern you are challenged-and if you get one it has been TOTALLY SCRUTINIZED BEFORE BEING GRANTED. Lack of basic understanding, i.e., knowledge, is another fact that these select few lack-just mouthpieces without supporting information to back up their dribble.
No wonder most small entrepreneurs fail-they don’t get it.
Why doesn’t someone address the real issue that enforcement and the cooperation of noticed violators is incredibly expensive and that there are few avenues for protection, ALL of which are cost-prohibitive. I think this is a clever and informative way to put the information in an accessible and embarassingly “punitive” way for outright theft of a company’s identity and property without spending ANY money.
Who wants to pay a retainer of 5 grand for every single violation? —especially where the lawyer’s results are little better than those who do it themselves (seriously-trademark attorneys will tell you that cease anbd desist letters are ignored routinely even when THEY send them). Why? Those that don’t care continue to violate and the ability for someone to collect damages is not easy, as you have to PROVE damages, the second part of a violation after proving a violation.
However, with a “Trademark Violator’s List” now they are in the spotlight (like a Wanted List). And many do ot want any part of being added to a public list. The only alternative is exposure-this certainly gets your attention-it is all people seem to talk about-obviously it WORKS! Why do you think it remains-it is EFFECTIVE-it gets NOTICED.
P.S. What does all of this have to do with the review of a product? As to a website, everyone has their opinion-sometimes navigation and content are important, some lokking the same as everyone else’s, some like lots of color, some like to put personal infor, some have lots of money to waste, some don’t, it is an information dispersion method-nothing more.
All of the comments are off-point and totally irrelevant discussion as to the topic-a new product review. Criticize, criticize, criticize….this industry has become less and less enjoyable (other than the wonderful and creatively made products of real entrepreneurs)-it once was all about the chile(s), chileheads, and the fiery products-now it is a bunch of complainers and short-term thinkers.i.e., failures,…focus on what is important! Have fun with the flavor, enjoy!

Ok. Wow, as in WOW.
I guess I nailed that one without even trying.
Time to shoot CaJohn and Defcon an order.
