Best

This is some of the best salsa I have ever ever tasted and I will continue to buy it from them.

So good

I dont get it often but ever since I've tried it at bologna festival years ago, I try to order it when im able. It's really good and quite honestly the only salsa I like.

Best salsa

I have bought this salsa several times. It’s very hot but it doesn’t linger so it’s perfect to eat a lot of. I will definitely order more in the future

Jerk Salsa

I love the jerk salsa! Great as a marinade on grilled chicken! I will be a lifelong customer for sure!

Salsa peach

I was thrilled to be able to order this salsa. I always bought it as school fundraiser. This is the best I've ever had.

Off the chart amazing

I actually buy the Spanish verde xxhot (stupid hot). And it is amazing my husband loves it and eats it on everything. And customer service is the best very nice and kind. This is the only place I will buy salsa from. Just amazing

Raspberry Salsa

This is my favorite salsa! I have been buying from Jose Madrid for more than 20 years and have loved all the products. But this is my all time favorite.

Black Bean Corn Poblano Salsa

The best black bean salsa I have eaten! It is spicy and so flavorful. I will be buying this salsa and others quite often.

Chipotlé Hot Salsa

This is by far and away my favorite salsa. I love the smoky flavor! I always pick up a jar of this for myself, even when I'm ordering a gift.

Love Love Love

I have been buying Jose Madrid salsa for years! My personal favorite is the Raspberry. I use it by itself as a dip, with cream cheese as a fancier dip, and on my signature nachos!! It is my all time favorite!

Chile Colorado (Mexican Beef Stew)

Best Chile Colorado (Mexican Beef Stew) recipe: Chunks of beef chuck and Roasted Garlic & Olives Salsa - roast until tender. Delicious!

Salsas from order

All 5 salsas that I ordered were amazing! I really love the pumpkin and next favorite is the cranberry. Peach and raspberry were really good too and I put the cherry one on my steak to marinate it... delicious

A salsa you'd slap your own mother for.

I'm not one to write food reviews, then again I'm not one to slap my own momma either. Yet when I ran out of my jar of Jamaican Jerk salsa and the wonderfully building spiciness, outstanding texture, and ridiculous flavor, I found myself craving another.

Great Salsa goes well on Avocado

Jose Madrid Salsa is the best. We love the raspberry mild salsa on a grilled half avocado (put fill the hole where the seed was with salsa. Previously we lived in Columbus, now in Ca and have to have the salsa shipped. Well worth the effort and great customer service!

Always consistent!

Product is always consistently good and fresh. Have eaten it for years and plan to do so as long as the product is available.

Best Mild Salsa

This salsa has a wonderful sightly fruity flavor and is a mild salsa for those not wanting a noticeable kick. I could not stop eating it. These are the best salsa's around by far!

Tastiest Salsa

This salsa has a wonderful full flavor and noticeable kick to it, but even for my mild pallet I could not stop eating it. These are the best salsa's around by far!

Roasted Garlic & Olives Salsa - Awesome!

First tasted a sample of this salsa at the Palmer Park Art Fair in Detroit, MI. I thought it was great since it has a lot of garlic in it, which I love. Took a jar home and used it on a couple of items -- Wow! Keep up the good work.

Best Salsa ever

Besides using it on chips, I put it on anything you might put bacon on; eggs, hamburgers, pizza, bake potatoes. I discovered Jose Madrid around 2000 at North Market and they had a free sample booth, and have been a loyal customer ever since. I have lived in Louisville, KY since 2004 and have a case of Chipotle Hot shipped on a regular basis.

Wow!!!

We found this salsa at a local event. Took a chance and bought a couple jars not knowing what to really expect. Long story short...it is a huge WOW!!! Not only is it HOT it has a great taste. Normally salsa THIS HOT is just "heat". Not the GHOST of CLOVIS. It is so good that we had to order more because after running out of the first batch, all other salsa pales by comparison. This time we stocked up. ;)

Garlic Lovers, Rejoice!

I discovered Jose Madrid Salsas in a grocery store in Zanesville Ohio around the Millennium and have enjoyed them ever since. I tried the Roasted Garlic & Olives and I am hear to tell you, if you like garlic this is for you! I will be ordering more!

Five Star+ Raspberry Mild

This is my second order of Raspberry Mild Salsa. Absolutely my favorite & the very best I’ve tasted anywhere. Chips & jalapeño poppers - don’t go without this salsa! Packaged very well. I even put my money in their stock $UPZS long term.

Awesome is the only word needed!

If you like your Cilantro with a little bit of salsa, then this is for you. You have to be a Cilantro lover to enjoy this as it has a very bold Cilantro presence and taste. Especially good with burritos, tacks, etc. (having burritos right now as I am writing this).

Rasberry Raves

This is our favorite salsa. I will just eat it out the jar. we just introduced it to our grandkids and they agree. We buy it by the case!

Outstanding Green Heat!

Found this product at a Farmers Market this spring and fell in love with it. I like heat, but also taste. This has ample amounts of both. Haven't tried it on Ice Cream yet, but I'm sure that's coming. It's that good!!

Good flavor, not too hot

It's addictive, once you start eating you won't be able to stop. You will eat the whole jar, and you can because it's not excessively hot. My new second favorite salsa out there.

Best salsa ever

This is my favorite salsa, period. It's hot, so if you can't take the heat stay away from it. But if you like it hot this stuff has the best flavor of any really hot salsa out there. Nothing gimmicky, just good flavor and good clean heat.

Outstanding Salsa

This is one of the best salsas I have ever had and that includes the salsas I've had in Mexico. Don't ever discontinue this product.

My Favorite, By Far!

Came upon this Great Salsa at a Home & Garden Show. The Booth next door Left a Bad Taste and Jose Saved the Day! Bought 3 Jars right Then and There!

Tongue slapp’n good!

I love this salsa! It is the perfect blend of flavors with the right amount of heat. It is heavy on cilantro but that’s what makes it taste so fresh I think. I had it on tacos the first time and it changed the demension of the taco. I ordered a couple other salsa flavors but haven’t gotten to them yet. I am truly enjoying this salsa.

my husbands favorite salsa

This is my husbands favorite hot salsa! We ordered 12 jars last time so he wouldn’t run out too quickly!

great salsa

We love Jose Madrid salsa. We did a fundraiser with them some years ago and got addicted. I like the fact that their fruit salsas are available in mild, unlike the supermarkets that only have hot fruit salsas that I don’t like.

On everything

Working on building a pipeline from Ohio to Michigan to ship this salsa directly to my mouth. It's a small pipeline, but we're getting some pushback from some counties along the way. Once we get the OK, construction should take three weeks. We just hope people don't tap into the pipe and re-route the salsa to their own kitchen.

best salsa

I believe that this is the best salsa I have ever purchased.. I have used it for many years and I always have compliments when I serve it at a party. My son in Alpharetta George loves it as well!

If you like Hot here it is!

Tasted this at St. Louis Home Show, just like man said "Stupid Hot" and it was!! But if like your salsa hot but with great taste..... get this one!!

Love it

Got some at a trade show and my husband LOVED IT. ORdere three of them and the gift box for Valentine's Day! Quick delivery too! Thanks so much

Wonderful if you like spicy!

We bought this salsa at Lake Fest and went through it super fast. I was happy when I realized we could order it online. Love the flavor and the spice! I will never be without this salsa again!

Love this Salsa!

I originally bought this salsa at a craft show. While all of the flavors are great, the roasted garlic and olives is my favorite. I use it in so many ways while cooking. I couldn't find another craft show near me so I had to order it online. So grateful that I'm able to order it online. Other brands just don't do it for me!

BEST SALSA EVER

We came across Jose Madrid years ago, my husband and I went to a craft fair in Prince William County in Virginia. Ever since then my husband brings up their name everytime we run out of the salsa. I usually get it for him for Holidays and his birthday. Had to chase the fed ex guy one year to make sure I had it for him for Christmas. EXTREME JOSE MADRID SALSA LOVERS

Favorite Salsa Ever

This is a great combination of seasonings and full flavor with the kick of a salsa. Not too hot but the garlic does build the intensity! LOVE this one.

Raspberry Mild Salsa

Jose Madrid's website is 1st Class, nice design/easy to use. They processed & shipped this order very fast! I ordered the 6 pack which came well packed with bubble wrap. They definitely know how to pack well. I opened the Raspberry Mild Salsa & wow it looks so rich & good. I'm no Salsa expert but this is great tasting with chips, not hot at all to me. But the real reason for buying the Raspberry Mild Salsa was for my jalapeno poppers. This combination is to die for! My best dish by far! They are hot & cheezy with amazing sweet Salsa!!!

really good with a little kick

I enjoyed this salsa a lot. I think it would work really well on a taco salad or pairs with something other than just a chip.

Fresh

This Salsa is one of the best Ive ever tasted. every jar has a fresh taste, Im sure to order more, wished, there was a store close to me that offered this

Smoking hot

My wife can't get enough of this salsa. A little too hot for me but she puts it on almost everything she eats, even scrambled eggs.

Garden Cilantro is the best

Both versions of Garden Cilantro (mild and hot) are excellent. I have tried the Mango - it's fine. I'm going to try more, but will always keep the Garden Cilantro on hand. I put a glob into home-made chicken vegetable soup and it took it to the next level.

spicy smoky sweetness

A wonderful blend of the tangy sweetness of raspberries, the smoky spice of chipotle- delicious!! I have been ordering this for years since first visiting Columbus, OH. The straight raspberry salsa is a favorite as well.

Chipotle Hot Review

Nice full flavor but not too hot. We use it as a basis for mixing the mild flavors especially raspberry. It is a nice variant to the Regular Hot.

Raspberry BBQ Chipotle Review

The Raspberry BBQ Chipotle is my favorite flavor bar none. There are several layers of flavor and the smokiness is unique. There is a sense of heat to it but no where near overpowering. Unfortunately, my older son decided its his favorite too...

Raspberry Mild Review

A standout on its own, I really enjoy this flavor and use it as a mix with the regular hot or the Chipotle Hot. Very fine...

The best salsa on the planet!

A perfect blend of heat and sweet. Totally delish and unlike any other salsa. Simply the best!

Best Tasting Salsa Ever

The flavor of this salsa is so good that I put up with the heat. I'm really interested in a medium spicy salsa with the exact same flavors - and maybe that's not possible!

Fan for life

I discovered Jose Madrid's Chipotle Hot salsa about 14 years ago when they had free samples set up at North Market in Columbus, OH. I now live in Louisville, KY and it is the only food I have shipped to me. I order it by the 12 pack about 2-4 times a year, and eat it almost daily. Best Salsa ever!

Tasty Salsa

I have been buying this salsa for years. I use it as a topping on my egg omelets. I like it very much and is a lot better than the store bought salsas.

Love it!

I like this salsa enough that I have purchased it for family members for Christmas. They have used it at parties and get togethers. I put it on eggs & eat it like green chili.

a continuos user of this product i

This and the green verde are our salsas of choice no other comes close to this products flavor

Best mild salsa ever!

Bought this salsa thru a fundraiser! Loved it! A little spicier than most milds, but not too much! Bought more for myself and also gave gift packs for Christmas!

Delicious

It is absolutely delcious. It has a great flavor and a ton of habanero heat. I haven't been able to find anything else like it. I can eat an entire jar in one day.

Freshest bursting flavors!

Tried this at a festival and wow!! So fresh tasting. Never would guess they could jar it. I love cilantro and this salsa is to die for. Thank goodness for online ordering or I'd be in denial!

Good tasting salsa

This salsa is better than the regular. My kids just love it. It is just right and the raspberries in it is perfect.

Love It - Eating this for over 13 years!

We found Jose Madrid Salsa over 13 years ago and we love it! The Raspberry is my favorite and I order a case at least once a year.

A Hidden Gem

This is by far the best salsa I have ever tried. I bought a jar last month at Michigan Speedway and I have purchased several more since. This salsa has the perfect combination of heat and sweet! My friends and family rave about this salsa.

X-Hot

Jose Madrid salsa is simply the best. I have it on microwaved scrambled eggs on toast. Take it with me to Popeye's Chicken to dip chicken strips or tenders as they call them and Chipotle.

Can't get enough

This is the best Raspberry salsa around. Just enough heat and sweet for my liking. Great with lots of different foods.

Top of the List

The BBQ Chipotle Mild is by far the best salsa I have ever had. I found Jose Madrid years ago at the home show is St. Louis, MO., and was hooked. With the sweet and mild spice flavor, you will not be disappointed. Thanks Jose Madrid for having amazing salsa!!!

Roasted garlic and black olives is Delicious!

I was introduced to your salsas during a fundraiser that one of my coworker's kids was involved with. I ordered 2 different salsas, but fell in love with the roasted garlic and black olive. I couldn't stop eating it. I knew once that jar was gone that I'd have to get more. Delicious!

Best I've Ever Tasted

I like cilantro and like a little "heat", this is by far the best salsa I've ever tasted. Have recommended this to many friends and families already.

Just OK for me

Just OK - I like my salsa with a little bit of a hot "kick", so although this salsa is OK it didn't have a spicy kick at all. I prefer the hot version of this salsa.

Best Salsa around!

My daughter did a fundraiser back in 2012 and sold this salsa. It was the best around and when we finally ran out what we had left over, Ive been searching high and low for this as we lost the name of maker and info somehow. Well we came across another fundraiser and bought a jar and then went to website and order a bunch. Now i have many on hand and will continue to order online now. The raspberry flavor is the best one and we all love it!

A-MAZING

I purchased this salsa as a gift for my parents and after we tried it, we all agreed it is the BEST salsa. It gives a mild heat, sweetness from the peaches and is so creamy. WOW!! Thank you. I'll be ordering again, very soon!!

The best most versitile salsa

I put this on crackers, on fish, rice mix...on anything. And I am going to try it with turkey meatballs simmered on the stove. The best flavor

Garden Cilantro Salsa Hot

Purchased on a whim, it is not quite what I expected although it is almost exactly as advertised. Luckily my wife loves it so it will get eaten and possibly reordered. She finds it quite interesting and flavorful. I do try it every time it is out just to make sure I didn't misjudge it.

Original Hot salsa review

At the urging of my eldest son, this is a favorite of both of ours. It is eaten straight up by my son but I use it to enhance the cherry and raspberry salsas whose flavors I love but find just a bit too mild. The hot is about the best combo of flavors I have yet encountered in my quest for salsa perfection. I am hooked!

Review of Cherry Mild Salsa

My personal favorite flavor BUT I find it a bit too mild. To alleviate this issue I use a bit of the Original hot to bring it up to a more zingy level. The ratio may vary based on my mood but cherry is just a great salsa.

A lot of flavor going on.

The Jamaican Jerk is a very interesting blend of flavors. I'm not sure to like it or not. If I were the chef I would reduce the sweet ingredients such as cinnamon and there was one other sweet ingredient I can't think of right now, but that would make the other flavors come out.

have used this product for a few years and its grest

First purchased this product at the Sandwich fair and got some of the best salsa ever , have ordered more to replenish our supplies
