When we launched East Coast Sauces, we didn’t just want to make sauces. We wanted to build something real—something with meaning, connection, and flavor that told a bigger story. And that’s exactly where the Coastie Membership comes in.
What’s a Coastie?
A Coastie is more than someone who likes hot sauce. They are the coolest people on the globe. Coasties are part of the family—people who believe in flavor that matters, stories that stretch from city to mountain, and a purpose that runs deeper than heat.
We created this membership as a way to invite YOU into the process. Not just to try our sauces, but to help shape where this thing goes.
As we grow, in the future, we want to have gatherings and experiences because that is what this is all about. Hang with cool, like-minded people that fricken love flavor.
What You Get as a Coastie.
The Coastie Membership is a lifetime membership. One-time payment. No subscriptions. Just benefits. Here’s what comes with it:
$2 off every bottle — always.
Early access to new releases and exclusive drops.
Coastie-only merch — designed for members, not available to the public.
Taste test opportunities for future sauces before anyone else.
Insider updates on our work with anti-human trafficking organizations.
Invites to special events and future community happenings (runs, pop-ups, etc.)
Why We Made It
We made it for the people who’ve supported us from day one. For those who care about flavor and impact. This community has helped us grow, and we wanted to return the love with something that’s worth more than just a discount.
We also believe food tastes better when there’s a story behind it. When you become a Coastie, you become part of that story—from the sauces to the missions we support.
How to Join
On our site there is a membership tab, where at the bottom you can grab it so quickly. No waiting, you are a Coastie.
