I used to buy the cheap Shito from the local international market, but there is no comparison. D&S isn't packed with cheap oil and fillers; you can actually taste the premium ingredients and the slow-cooked depth. I’d rather pay a bit more for a jar that actually has flavor!

Most Shito you find online is way too sweet or tastes like basic tomato paste. D&S is the only brand I've found that gets that smoky, savory balance exactly right. It’s thick, dark, and punchy—just like my auntie used to make in Accra.

I was a bit hesitant about the cost at first, but the 'Free First Jar' subscription made it so easy to try. When you factor in the quality and the fact that it's delivered to your door, it’s a steal. One jar goes a long way because it's so concentrated!
