FOUNDERS BLEND

This is where sweet meets smoke and refuses to compromise.

Founders Blend is built around the deep, umami richness of fermented black garlic, layered with the warm sweetness of maple bourbon, and finished with large-flake sea salt that hits clean and bright. The result is a bold balance of sweet and savory.

Black garlic brings that slow-aged depth. Maple bourbon adds a smooth, oak-kissed sweetness. Flaky sea salt sharpens everything into focus.

No fillers. No shortcuts. Just premium ingredients blended with intention.

This is the blend that started it all.

INSIDE THE FIRE

BLEND BREAKDOWN

BLACK GARLIC

Slow-fermented for weeks to unlock deep umami, subtle sweetness, and a lingering richness that hits low and stays heavy. This is the backbone of the blend. Dark. Savory. Unmistakable. The kind of depth you don’t forget and don’t try to tame.

MAPLE

Reduced maple brings a restrained sweetness to a rough edge. Warm, rounded, and lightly caramelized, it rides the line between smooth and smoky without ever turning soft. Just enough sweetness to sharpen the savory and keep everything dangerous.

BOURBON

Bourbon-driven warmth with notes of oak, vanilla, and char. It rolls in slow, builds steady, and leaves a lasting glow. Never loud. Never sloppy. It stitches sweet and savory together and gives the blend its backbone of fire.

FLAKY SEA SALT

Large-flake sea salt hits clean and deliberate. It cuts through fat, wakes up aromatics, and drags every flavor into focus. The final strike that locks heat, smoke, sweetness, and umami into one ruthless finish.

In the words of Pete Roberts, “This stuff is freakin’ phenomenal.” I have yet to find something this seasoning doesn’t pair well with. It’s excellent on English muffins with butter, Popcorn seasoning, casserole seasoning, I CANNOT wait to try it on wings. I will definitely be buying more.

Great flavor! I have enjoyed this on both chicken and beef. Critical feedback item: dispensing is frustrating as openings on the shaker side of the lid seem to clog easily.

Blend is fairly sweet, with a faint burnt aroma, its actually not very salty so you sort of need to put it on liberally. The blend also adds to caramelization. What needs a little tweaking is the dispenser holes, one side has very small holes which let out very little, too little, those holes need to be a little bigger. The other side has massive holes which dump out a lot of the blend, those maybe could be a little smaller. I do appreciate the bottle is glass instead of some plastic. The flakey salt is actually pretty fine and the mixture is a bit light, so it sorta resembles ash on dark foods. Until it caramelizes.

And each time I got the stamp of approval from my entire family!

Very versatile and right balance of flavors.

Will be a standard go to for the summer!
