Grandad Johnny's Chilli Relish - Epic Taste

Grandad Johnny's Chilli Relish range has a rich story behind it. Here is one anecdotes of what the coolest and grumpiest old man used to get up to as a youngster.

Grandad Johnny was the eldest of five brothers and as such was expected to keep the order around the house when his mammoth-sized father was not around. Needless to say, Johnny was not the most well behaved lad, and got himself into many sticky situations, which were followed by many beatings. On one occasion the brothers decided to steal some dynamite from their old man's locked shed out back. Off they went into the old Transvaal wilderness to find something to obliterate something.

After a while they happened upon a small hillock, far enough away from civilization to go unnoticed and just the right size for blasting. So, the brothers embarked on some assisted excavations - in other words they blew the thing to hell and back. They had a total blast and then returned home. The days went by and life continued.

A week or so later, unbeknownst to Grandad Johnny, a story appeared in the local newspaper telling of the desecration of a historically significant hill; it had been a landmark in the Boer War. This senseless act could only have been undertaken by ruthless liberals bent on overthrowing the government.

Not long after, Mammoth great grandad Spencer was checking through the items in his shed, and noticed some dynamite was missing. Putting two and five together, the chain of events and proximity in walking distance to the infamously destroyed hill, he realized the significance of his missing dynamite.

Grandad Johnny was of course blamed for the entire 'Hill Incident'. He used to love telling me the story. The fiery old man passed down his fun-loving feisty character, which is what the relish is based on. 

Get some of Grandad Johnny's Chilli Relish if you're looking for some taste bud explosion. If dynamite is not your thing you can try the milder range of products. The taste is still epic, just like the old man.
