If you like challenges, I recommend the following:
If you prefer sauces you can cook and eat freely, then I recommend:
The best standard vinegary hot sauces from Mexico, imo: Tapatio and Valentina. Try them if you get a chance. They're nothing like Tabasco (which I hate, and it's from Louisiana, US).
As for my favorite Mexican hot sauces overall, you can't go wrong with El Yucateco. They have numerous varieties, and you can't go wrong picking this up: https://www.amazon.com/El-Yucateco-Habanero-Sauces-Items/dp/B0000GHNUE/ref=sr_1_2_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1539815317&sr=8-2&keywords=el+yucateco
Their standard red sauce is average, but the green, Caribbean, and "Kutbil-ik de" (I think that's what it's called) are fantastic.
You're right, I am all of those things, and dudes are my specialty. (For the record, I do like Tabasco)
I find different dishes call for different sauces. The more sauces you try, the better of an idea you'll get for yourself what works with what. Note that the below links might not be the best prices and you can probably find a lot of these sauces at your local grocery store (unless you live in some cultural black hole like the American midwest). I spent my earlier years in southern California and developed a taste early on for Mexican cuisine, so my taste is highly reflective of that influence.
I enjoy these Mexican-style sauces:
El Yucateco is a great brand, in my opinion. They have a lot of awesome varieties. If you go to an authentic Mexican restaurant, you'll likely find it there:
There are some other popular sauces which if I were to omit, people around here would be very angry:
There are a lot of boutique sauces out there that just pump out the Scoville units for the hell of it. A lot of them are gag gifts or novelties, but there are people out there that genuinely enjoy the rush you can get from them - you do get an adrenaline rush, it IS a high. Most of the sauces like this, however, are intended for cooking beef chili and other dishes where a small amount can be distributed through a larger portion of food.
The seventh one from the bottom left is the shit! El Yucateco
All 4 of these ;) but my favorite is the Caribbean and XXXtra hot ones. They're all delicious, though, and very spicy! :)
