Found on sale in the UK, but they're an Estonian brand - first time i've ever had crisps from Estonia!

These certainly are a grand offering to the British Crisp universe - I would say they're definitely a fancy dinner guest snack.

The shape of a cracker but definitely a crisp. You'd struggle a little to try and dip these. The crunch is sufficient mind.. 

The flavour is smokey & salty as you'd expect from a Bacon crisp with a slathering of sweeter onion for good measure. 

Personally I've eaten the whole pack and feel a little sick as a result - I reccomend having them as a party snack... when we're allowed to have Parties that is !!

A New range, from the mind of... Big Narstie!

Probably the last thing you'd expect to be released from a rapper is a crisp range! Still these are made purely from HEMP and look pretty trippy..

Not much info on the front - the flavour is called KUSH and at the bottom it says " Myrcene, Cineol & Linalool" so equally zero information about what flavour they could be...

The crisp itself is real thin, with little crunch as a result. The flavour if i'm not mistaken is just plain salted.. but there's an aroma to the crisps which is quite intense and I'm beginning to believe are a big part of these crisps. It's pretty unusual to have a crisp brand solely focus on smell over flavour that's for sure!

The smell is unlike much i've ever smelt before.. They smell quite floral but with a chemically tinge.. like i'm in a spa..

I really don't know what to make of these?! Let's see what the rest of the range has in store...

Another in the Walkers' TASTE ICONS range - and 1 of 2 Pizza Express flavours (the only restaurant to have 2) although we've really struggled to get hold of the Margherita version of this).

The American hot is a great pizza - Spicy pepperoni with hot jalapeno peppers, a classic in most pizzerias. But how does that translate to crisps?

Well it certainly doesn't have an immediate hotness, it starts with a tomatoey base, a pickled tang, turning into a smokey cheese and then eventually you start to feel the hotter side of the jalapeno. I can't seem to taste anything slightly like pepperoni in there.

I have to say it makes for a very strange flavour. Having the tang of jalapeno way before the hit of it is an interesting effect.

4/10

With so many amazing Burger options available to us now, I'd almost forgotten about Gourmet Burger Kitchen. I do however remember their peanut-butter burger being pretty amazing (I am after all intensely addicted to peanut flavouring).

They've gone with a classic cheeseburger for their Taste Icon flavouring with Walkers. 

I can't say much about there being a beef-like flavouring in there but what I feel like I can taste (but doesn't seem to be in the ingredients) is a really nice dill pickle tang - Dill pickle really is the best flavouring you can get on crisps in the US of A.

Sure there's a sweet tomato flavour (pretty much prawn cocktail) and a slight tinge of cheese - but the best of the flavour is in that pickle and a little, very welcome hint of mustard. 

8.5/10

Next up in the TASTE ICONS range from walkers - Yo! Katsu Curry.

I'm not sure Katsu is what Yo! is known for... but Sushi would make for a pretty disgusting crisp I guess - Rice/seaweed/fish flavour? No thanks!

I'm a fan of Katsu, even if the flavour can sometimes taste like a cheap iceland microwave curry flavour. Sure it's trashy, but with a crunchy chicken it's definitely one of my favourite Japanese dishes.

They've hit the Katsu nail on the head here. The flavour is exactly as it should be and tastes really nice. I'm glad Walkers didn't try to add their chicken flavouring into this as it would undoubtedly becoming a bit sickly as a result. These really are quite good.

8/10

Since lockdown here in the UK, some of our most frequented restaurant chains have shut down. It's quite shocking really, how quickly Walkers rolled these out.. it's almost as if they knew.. or were holding them on standby for such an occasion! Either way we've been able to enjoy some interesting collaborations. Starting here with a favourite, Nando's. 

Whilst it gives the flavour as Peri'Peri chicken, it doesn't mention with hotness level - there sure are some massive differences! I'm going to have to take a guess.

On first taste - there's a definite citrus tang that would pair it with lemon & herb, but as the flavour permeates through my taste buds I'm inclined to say that it's something hotter in there - the bell pepper hit is coming through and i'd put somewhere between a medium heat and lemon & herb. The chicken undertone is a classic chicken flavouring from Walkers. There's also a heavy amount of Paprika it seems, which does surprise me. You can see if in the colour of the crisp.
​I'm less of a fan of the lemon so afraid it's a 6/10

Here we have the missing piece of the jigsaw from my reviews of Walkers' STRONG range - the rest of them went down pretty well, but the clear winner so far has been Chilli & Lime - they got a massive 9/10 which is rare.

Fiery Peri has been given a rating of EXTRA HOT and after my first taste - I have to agree, they really have a hearty bite that would keep you warm on a winters day.. only its sunny and my mouth is burning. That's not to say it's not welcome, I love a good intense spice - these are SUPER peppery and have a good paprika undertone to the chilli pepper spice. They also have a sour-vinegary-tang to them, even though that's not in the ingredients, maybe t comes from the citric acid? Either way it's not entirely welcome to my palette.

They're not for the faint of heart, but they've definitely woken me up.
