TABASCO®

The hot red peppers that fire up TABASCO® Sauce originated in Mexico or Central America. They were first planted on Avery Island, Louisiana, over 135 years ago by Edmund McIlhenny and first made into the famous flavor enhancer by McIlhenny Company in 1868. McIlhenny is still in operation on that very site today where finished sauce is bottled with labels in 21 languages and prepared for shipment to over 160 countries and territories around the world.
Visit www.TABASCO.com for more. The TABASCO® marks, bottle and label designs are registered trademarks and servicemarks exclusively of McIlhenny Company, Avery Island, LA 70513. www.TABASCO.com
