Spicing Up State Street

Fiery Concept Opens in Uptown

The historic heart of Westerville has long been a magnet for hip boutiques, dining, cocktails, and, of course, ice cream. Now its newest tenant is adding a little heat to the community hotspot. Familyowned-and-operated Flavor and Fire moved into the former Sugarbee’s location at 20 S. State St. in June. The Uptown location is Flavor and Fire’s second brick-and-mortar location; their first store is located inside the North Market in Downtown Columbus.

The specialty grocery store offers an array of hot sauces, barbecue sauces, salsas, rubs, spices and complimentary items, such as tortilla chips. Their hot sauces range from mild to super hot, including extracts, savory and fruit-based options.

The Columbus Series Hot Sauces is a unique line that includes varieties from Columbus, Ala.; Columbus, N.Y. and Columbus, Ohio, with a range of mild to very hot – offering a heat level for every flavor palate.

Flavor and Fire has dedicated time to building a co-packing business model that works with new, start-up hot sauce and BBQ companies, restaurants and other food companies and businesses handling thousands of gallons of sauce per month.
