O'Mimo's

Having worked all over the world this husband-and-wife team of Seamus and Mimo commenced their exciting O’Mimo’s Chilli Madness venture in March 2020 as a semi-retirement business, much to the delight of all discerning Chilli afficionados. 

Based in Portarlington, their homemade fresh Chilli Sauces and tantalising Apple Chilli Sage Jam are made in small batches with premium ingredients. The O’Mimo’s range brings excitement and a new food sensation to the market. These delicious, bold and flavourful sauces are ideal for those who love food adventures and flavourful explosions. 

O’Mimo’s Chilli Madness Sauces are a Chilli Lover’s delight. All age groups in Ireland are embracing O’Mimo’s sauces and jam and making it their own. The youngest admirers, have been 2, six-year-olds and 1 four-year-old that went all the way to taste O’Mimo’s Head Exploder Sauce, their versality makes it a must have in every Chilli loving household. The different heat levels in each sauce ensures there is something for everyone. 

The Apple Chilli Sage Jam is one of the best sellers, made with apples, chillies and sage from the garden, creating a combination that is deliciously different. The Chilli Mango Mania Sauce is made with Alphonso, the King of Mangoes, offering a sublime, luscious and fiery deliciousness. 

O’Mimo’s Chilli Madness is receiving accolades at many Irish festivals and tastings. Darina Allen, Neven McGuire, Kate Ryan, Sally and John McKenna are among the many who love O’Mimo’s sauces and jam. Darina Allen used 2 of O’Mimo’s products, The award winning Hot Hot Sauce and the Not So Hot Sauce for her cooking demonstration at the National Women’s Enterprise Day in Durrow. 

O’Mimo’s latest creation is the Special Edi􀆟on O’Mimo’s TropAtomic Hot Sauce using 10 different types of very hot chillies grown in Mallow, Co. Cork by Seamus’s brother, Sean on the family farm. The very hot chillies mixed with pineapple, mango, ginger, lemon and lime combine naturally together, to give this sauce a kick and a warmth to remember. 

The home based, very niche, artisan, micro business is going full steam ahead. Did someone say something about retirement?
