Welcome

Artisans of the Afterburn…

If you grow it, grind it, ferment it, bottle it, or send it off with love, (and a slight warning)

… You belong here.

The Republic of Heat is not a brand. It’s a movement. We believe EVERYONE loves a good, independent, crafted, lovingly made hot sauce, they just haven’t found the one for them…. yet.

Our initial investment round is open NOW
We want to build the independent hot sauce community so our initial investment round is only open to those involved in the production of hot sauces or other “spice related” ventures.

If you want to participate, you have until the 7th August to contact us.

What You Get If you join the republic

What We Do for you:

Feature your sauces in our subscription boxes and gift kits (and yes, we pay you for them)

Access cooperative orders: glassware, lids, labels, weirdly shaped bottles.

Get storage + clean kitchen access (Berlin).

Join the Sauce Directory – our Europe-wide index of independent flavour

Opportunity to appear in our YouTube channel and spicy public rituals

What We Don’t Do:

we don’t tell you how to make your sauce.

We don’t steal your brand.

We don’t demand exclusivity.

We don’t slash your margins.

We definitely don’t pretend Remoulade is a real condiment.

We’re here to make you more profitable, more visible, and far less alone in a world of bland.
