Clancy's Fancy

From boarding school experimentation to cult following, Clancy's Fancy is hardly the hottest hot sauce you've ever tasted, but it just might be the most unique. And each 7.5 oz bottle of pungent goodness brings with it a kaleidoscopic personality that screams, "Made in Ann Arbor."

From apple cider vinegar to ginger to cayenne peppers to Michigan wildflower honey, reading food bloggers puzzle over the sauce's one-of-a-kind flavor before giving it their thumbs (tongues?) up, is almost as interesting as the sauce itself. Heck, even Road Food sings its praises, describing it as a kaleidoscopic potion.
