I realized I don’t know sh*t about hot sauce after learning about a guy named Vic Clinco.

Clinco has 8,600 bottles of hot sauce in his Arizona home, and he’s still adding to his collection. The Guinness Book of World Records currently has someone else in the books as the record holder, but Mr. Clinco believes he has surpassed that collection because the other fella has barbeque sauces and salsas included in the count. For Clinco, it’s strictly about the hot sauce.

Let’s take a look at these photos of Clinco’s collection, shall we?

1. The man himself

2. That’s a lot of Cholula

Yes that is a giant bottle of @cholulahotsauce, size apparently does matter! This cool addition was a donation to The Museum from an OG Chilehead who asked to remain anonymous and just wanted to contribute. This industry is full of incredible people just like him and I'm honored to be a part of it! Thank you again and thanks to adding to #thecollection #hotsauce #hotsauces #hotsaucecollection #hotsaucehouse #hotsaucelife #myaddiction #myobsession #myspicyworld #vicsspicyworld

3. CBD? Why not?!?!

Yep, the CBD hot sauce from @cajohnfieryfood is now part of the largest hot sauce collection in the world. It's a very unique tasting sauce that's somewhat earthy from the CBD, sweet and fruity. It's an Orange Habanero based sauce that is on the milder side. I'm pretty high on having it in #thecollection #hotsauce #hotsauces #hotsaucecollection #hotsaucehouse #hotsaucelife #myaddiction #myobsession #myspicyworld #vicsspicyworld #cbd www.cajohns.com

This is the entry room of my house, it is the largest privately owned hot sauce collection in the world. We have reached 9,000 unique and sealed bottles from literally all over the planet displayed in what has become a museum and/or shrine to the hot sauce industry!
