Kent Crisps Unique Range of Flavours
Each of Kent Crisp ' s seven tasty flavours is produced with partnerships with fellow local businesses right on the doorstep . Their commitment to making great-tasting crisps is at the forefront of what they do while promoting the fantastic produce coming out of the county .
Ashmore Cheese & Onion : Traditionally matured Ashmore Farmhouse cheese made by Cheesemakers of Canterbury is used to put a twist on one of the country ’ s all-time favourite flavours .
Lamb & Rosemary : Made using Romney lamb from Kent Shepherd , whose sheep graze the family farm fields , this flavour tastes like British Sunday lunch .
Sea Salt & Vinegar with Biddenden Cider : Created with a delicious combination of the renowned Biddenden Cider with natural sea salt and vinegar .
Sea Salt : Delicately flavoured with natural sea salt to allow the taste of our great British potatoes to shine through .
Ham & Mustard : A heart-pumping combination produced with Pork & Co . in Canterbury that packs a strong , meaty and very moreish punch .
Chipotle Chilli : Made with chipotle ( smoked jalapeño ) chillies grown at Kent Chilli Farm for a wonderfully smokey flavour with a slight kick .
Oyster & Vinegar : Inspired by the famous Whitstable oysters , a flavour that tastes of the Kentish seaside .
Their close relationships with local producers support like-minded businesses while keeping food miles to a minimum . The brand is also conscious of its food waste . While making the crisps , they avoid throwing anything unnecessary away ; in the flavourings for the famous Ashmore Cheese & Onion for example , they use the entirety of the cheese , including the rind , and in the Lamb & Rosemary , the whole of the lamb , including the fat .
It ’ s not just the delicate flavours of Kent that the snack brand promotes ; Kent Crisps pays tribute to the county ’ s tourism too , promoting recognised landmarks , sea and landscapes on its packaging designs . The packets include world-famous treasure Leeds Castle and Canterbury Cathedral , iconic Kentish coastlines , Seasalter ’ s bold beach huts and beautiful rolling countryside ; this reiterates their mission to raise Kent ’ s tourism profile and support the local economy .
Did you know that Kent Crisps packaging is also entirely carbon neutral and you can recycle the packets ? Customers are invited to enjoy their potato snacks but to take as much enjoyment in recycling the packets once finished - something they encourage all of their customers to do and support by providing packet recycling facilities at larger local supermarkets .
So where can you buy Kent Crisps ? Kent Crisps are available to purchase in farm shops , delis and independent retailers across the UK and to purchase directly from the new site launched just before Christmas .
Kent Crisps are proud exporters and are now supplying over 12 international markets worldwide including Hong Kong , the USA and Singapore , providing people as far away as Australia the opportunity to sample a little taste of Kent .
The brand represents Kent and all that the county offers ; they work together with some of the region ' s finest producers to create a fantastic range of flavours that are now recognised worldwide . Not only that , but they continue to support Kent ' s tourism offerings . The brand is a postcard of Kent and all it has to offer , which is why we love it so much !
