Tabasco Sauce Headquarters, Louisiana

The primary source of Tabasco Sauce is this unusual plant and plantation, on top of the Avery Island Salt Dome, in coastal Louisiana. The company was founded by the McIlhenny family, and this is still their estate, with several private homes on the grounds in addition to publicly accessible Jungle gardens, and the Tabasco plant factory tour. This is also where Robert Flaherty’s film Louisiana Story, commissioned by Standard Oil, was filmed.
