Maybe not a direct answer to your question but flavor/heat wise, Melinda's Naga Jolokia XX and Sontava are the best I've ever had!

Bought online.

Bottles are hard to find. They seem to be more expensive, or at least close to, bottles with something inside. Dollar store has some nice bottles sometimes plus you get to try out the sauces. If you dont like the flavor, dump it and keep the bottle.

I have a cool bottle that I use for powder. It is the Japanese
Nanami Togarashi bottle, but for liquid, I just reuse other bottles. Japanese restaurants will sometimes give you for free.

bottles are neither expensive nor hard to find. there's tons of websites to order them from, like fillmorecontainer.com (great customer service), but your best bet is to find them locally. you notice on websites that the bottles are cheap, but it's the shipping that kills you. so try to find them locally and you don't have to pay for shipping.

go on google maps and type in glass containers. you'd be amazed what might be near you, tucked away in some industrial complex somewhere. and many times these places have no minimum order for walk in sales as long as they don't have to special order it.

happy bottling.

Nothing particularly unusual in the following links, just the basics for those that clicked on the thread hoping to find some...

Thanks everybody! Definitely going to look into the local (all suggestions actually)

sunburst bottle - http://www.sunburstbottle.com

The better bottles, atleast the ones I like the most, are all cork top. Is that safe for hot sauces??
