Whaat~? You said potato chips for summer? I don’t think it’s the typical food for summer though......
I know, right? But this summer special edition potato chips are the one which is specially made with a concept ‘the best chips to eat in summer,’ the special ingredients, texture and a package!
What Is Calbee Summer Potato Chips?
Calbee Summer Potato Chips are a special edition potato chips series, produced by Calbee, with different ingredients and production processes depending on each season.
This potato chips series changes its producing area, how it’s cut, how it’s shaped and how the texture is, depending on each season, except for the theme “thick-cut ridged chips” remained the same. In summer, they use freshly harvested potatoes that are harvested outside of Hokkaido. They cut potatoes shallowly, leaving a light texture to it.
The salt they use is the one from Tsushima which is one of the famous places for salt. The concept of this summer chips is “light” and “easy to eat” with a deep flavor, aftertaste and texture!
A special highlight in Calbee!
The reason why they don’t use potatoes harvested in Hokkaido which is the most famous area for potatoes!
Wow~! So, they don’t use potatoes harvested in Hokkaido for the summer version chips, huh?
Right! Calbee is one of the biggest companies in the potato chips industry and 70% of potatoes that they use come from Hokkaido. But for this summer chips, why do they not use the ones from Hokkaido......?
In fact, they don’t store enough potatoes in summer in Hokkaido! So, summer is the season when they prepare for harvesting good potatoes in fall, winter and spring seasons!(※According to the information from Calbee)
I see~~! But I think now is the best season for potatoes, no?
Yep! The best season for potatoes is known to be around May or June but in Hokkaido, good potatoes can be harvested in other seasons as well! That’s why, they purposely do not use the one from Hokkaido in summer, which allows chips to have the different texture and flavor, I guess!
What Does Calbee Summer Potato Chips Taste Like?
- It’s a special edition for summer with a lightly-salted flavor! It’s less oily than other versions, which makes it taste more refreshing!
- While enjoying less-oily and less-salted flavor, you can still enjoy the texture is strong with thick-cut ridged chips!
- It’s a special-edition summer chips with strictly selected ingredients, including the special newly-harvested potatoes and salt!
Although I expressed it’s quite light in flavor, the aftertaste was actually strong just like other chips! I surely felt that it was the special chips only for summer!
Yeah~! I felt aftertaste of salt too! It was simple but satisfying! If it was more oily and thicker in flavor, ‘it would not be like a summer-like chips.’ If I should describe this flavor, I would say it’s a strong salty flavor with good texture!
