Heat Lovers, This One’s for You
Not all salami is created equal — especially when it comes to spice. From gentle warmth to fiery heat, spicy salami offers something for every palate. At Goose on the Loose, our handcrafted range showcases different levels of spice so you can find your perfect match. Here’s a guide to ranking spicy salami from mild to fiery.
Mild Spice: Gentle Warmth
Kangaroo Salami with Mild Chilli
For those who enjoy just a touch of heat, Kangaroo Salami with Mild Chilli is the perfect starting point. The gamey richness of kangaroo blends with a gentle chilli kick that’s flavourful without being overpowering.
Medium Spice: Bold but Manageable
Smoky and full of flavour, Chorizo sits firmly in the medium category. With its paprika-forward warmth, it’s bold enough to stand out but still accessible for most guests.
A classic favourite, Pepperoni delivers a peppery kick that’s slightly stronger than chorizo. It pairs beautifully with sharp cheeses and crisp craft beers.
Hot Spice: Turning Up the Heat
Calabrese brings a noticeable level of heat, balanced with rich, savoury flavour. It’s perfect for those who like a strong chilli presence without going over the top.
Fiery Spice: For the Brave
Chilli Bomb with Carolina Reaper
For serious spice enthusiasts, the Chilli Bomb with Carolina Reaper is not for the faint-hearted. With the world’s hottest chilli pepper delivering a fiery punch, this salami is best served in thin slices with cooling sides like creamy cheeses or fresh fruit.
Final Thoughts
Whether you prefer the mild warmth of kangaroo with chilli, the smoky kick of chorizo, the bold heat of calabrese, or the explosive fire of Carolina Reaper, the Goose on the Loose Salami range has something to satisfy every spice preference. Building a platter across the heat spectrum is a great way to cater to different tastes while keeping things exciting.
