Well, what can I say.
This stuff is also great :)
After having a good old whiff if this stuff, I could tell it was not far off Defcon 3 in aroma and I suspected taste. Only real difference I could smell was maybe a bit more vinegar.
I was eager to try it so in went my little finger. The flavour, which I concentrated on first, was great. Just like Defcon 3 really. See my review here:

I really love the taste of this stuff.
As for the burn. The bottle describes it as medium heat. Well it's about right. There is definatly more of a burn feeling then the warm feeling of Defcon 3. However, it's not overwhelming.
I even gave my wife some telling her it was defcon 3 ;) lol. She loved the stuff. She isn't one for hot food etc but like a bit of chili etc. She said it did burn a bit but not in a bad way.
So I tried some on some scrambled eggs as I did with the Defcon 3. I added about 5 or 6 drops of the Defcon 2 to the eggs before putting them in the pan. After scrambling up the eggs I put them on a plate and had them straight up. Not in sandwich form etc. Well that same great taste was definatly there. The burn was also there to add the the pleasurable experience. Man, those scrambled eggs were good with this stuff!
Later on we cooked up some fresh chili, using some hot fresh chili's we bought from a local shop. I added about 2 - 3 drops of the Defcon 2 to about half a plate of the chili and mixed it in.
WOW! It was great. The flavour was slightly subdued with the chili's and chili powder we had used to make the chili. The burn added to that of the other ingredients. It didn't tip it off the scale though.
All in all this is a great sauce. If you want a slightly hotter version of Defcon 2 then this is the one for you. That great flavour is still there and it's hotter. I think I'll find this one will be gone just as quick as Defcon 3 lol.
I'm finding I am adding this to near enough everything I eat! Anyone else find that?
This one also has a very fresh taste to it. COOL! I think this one is also getting me addicted lol. Whilst writing this I've had the bottle out at least 7 times to dip into lol. I can't get enough!
I really do love this stuff. Highly recommended to everyone. I'm sure everyone here has tried it, but if not, Get Some asap! This one also deserves the awards it has won.
Again, a big round of applause for the Creator for a devine hot sauce.
Back soon with a write up for Defcon 1.
