About Us

Tews Family History

My Grandparents, Esther and Edward Tews, instilled in our family both a love of the land, and a wicked sense of humor for our last name. Well, maybe not wicked, but they're where it started.  We just decided to have some more fun with it in naming our sauces and company with the family name.  Come along with us as we celebrate all things Tews, where clever puns (and Dad jokes) are encouraged. We hope you also enjoy some of our favorite memories of growing up Tews, with these fun interpretations.


All of our sauces are small batch and handcrafted at our home right now.  As we generate interest and get feedback from our friends, neighbors and co-workers, your interest will help steer decision-making about batch sizes, quantities, and more.  

2025 UPDATES

07FEB2025 - I am hoping I get accepted into the Monroe Saturday Farmer's Market, along with my usual Friday market in New Glarus


   If you live near the New Glarus / Blanchardville area, DROP ME A NOTE if you'd like to drop on by to pick some up.

Juan Tews

 JUAN TEWS 


Good ol’ Uncle JUAN TEWS has traveled the world, exploring all nooks, crannies, and cultures; some of it even in ¾ time. This kimchi recipe that he brought back from his wanderings has origins in the East, but is now blended with Wisconsin cabbage and peppers.

Tews Simple

  

TEWS SIMPLE 


This Hatch Green Chili salsa is a flavor I have been chasing for many years to perfect, but I had given up after repeated, humiliating, reputation-destroying, butt-clenching failures that forced me back to the drawing board every time. Then one day I said, “HEY, THAT’S A CHALKBOARD, and muttere to myself that maybe I should use numbers and letters instead of using it as a drawing board”. Turns out, just like me, this sauce is TEWS SIMPLE ...

Tews Strong Hatch

TEWS STRONG - HATCH


Some say the simple things are the best things in life. Others believe the more complex things are made better by the sum of all their parts. This mind-blowing accidental discovery, made while processing a new batch of fermented pepper sauce, is an example of both being true at the same time.  The swift overpowering sour and savory heat complexity seems impossible at first, but have no doubts about it, this concoction is simply TEWS STRONG.
