The Hatchery Tasting Box is a brand new subscription that sends you gourmet condiments, sauces, spreads, etc. each month.
Hatchery kindly sent me this box to review.
The Subscription Box: Hatchery Tasting Box

The Products: Each box includes a hand selected combination of ingredients, such as: condiments, spreads, cooking sauces, jams, honeys, syrups, oils, vinegars, salts, spices, seasonings and specialty baking ingredients.
Check out all of my Hatchery reviews and the Food Subscription Box Directory for similar boxes!
Each box comes with a fold out card detailing the items included, and profiles the makers behind the items. (I was also happy to see that on every product they include dietary info like: gluten-free, peanut-free, vegan, no sugar added, etc.)
Diane's Sweet Heat Mango Habanero Jam - 1.5 oz Value $2
Saucy Sister Virgin Vanilla Bean Salted Caramel Sauce - 2 oz Value $2.75
This Mango Habanero Jam is spicy! A little goes a long way so I was able to use this jar to marinate our chicken dinner!
Arette Tea Seed Oil - 1 oz Value $1
Empire Mayonnaise White Truffle - 1 oz Value $2
We've tried Empire Mayonnaise before, and I really like that their flavors are noticeable but not overpowering. I think I might try this mayo with the Hatchery recipe for Tempura String Beans with White Truffle Mayo dip!
Whole Spice Paella Spice Mix - Value $5?
Bill's Best Original BBQ Sauce - 2 oz? Value $2?
I was planning on making vegetable paella after seeing a recipe in a magazine, so this spice will cut out a few steps for me!
Verdict: I think this is a great subscription for anyone who loves to cook. I love that Hatchery has so many recipes featuring all of the items in the box. This isn't a high value box - I think it's about $15 worth of items, but it is a great way to try out new products without committing to full-size versions. I would like to see them get the value a little higher though.
