Leighton Brown are very new to the block, they're based in Hackney, East London and this is their one and only flavour to date.
I'm not usually a massive fan of crisps not made from potato or corn, they have a much more chewy rather than crispy texture to them.
In this case it really works, the ingredients seem really natural and fresh, the parsnip still has a little chew to it but it's ok, parsnip has such a good sweet flavour to it that's very prominent.
The manuka honey serves the parsnips well, but the real ingredient that makes these is the mild spices (including mustard & Celery). It gives it a great tang that will make you want to lick your fingers. They're not over or under seasoned too.
Clearly these guys are ones to look out for in the future, they tell me they have another flavour in the making so hopefully we'll be seeing them before christmas, but for now: www.leightonbrown.co.uk.
