Truffle brand TRUFF teamed up with Los Angeles-based streetwear designer Warren Lotas to create a limited-edition sauce that puts a fresh new spin on the brand's classic bottle. Known for his hand-drawn skulls, flames and boldness, the designer transformed the brand's recognizable geometric truffle cap into a signature skull shape. The bottle for TRUFF's White Hotter Hot Sauce now shares an edge that goes along with the fiery infusion of real white truffles and spice that customers will find inside. As Warren Lotas says, "TRUFF has a unique presence within streetwear culture that makes it different from legacy hot sauce brands. They push the envelope in every aspect; flavor, packaging, and marketing."
The limited-edition hot sauce is currently available to purchase online and through Erewhon stores across the Greater Los Angeles area.
