Company: The Inventive Group, Inc. (Distro: Boulder Canyon Foods)

Country: USA

City: Boulder, Colorado

Cost: CI0.89

Size: 42.6g

Purchased/consumed: 22/12/09, Kirk’s Supermarket, North Sound Road, Grand Cayman

Pack: Purple wood effect with large badge: Made From Natural Ingredients. Boulder logo shows a mountain range and back has interesting take on the invention of crisps. This version has Chef George Crum of NY as main man.

Flavour:  Malt Vinegar & Sea Salt

Type: Deep Fried Potato Crisps

Taste:  Delicious sweet vinegars with just a touch too much oversoftening fructose. The sherbert of the added acetic acid is similarly overdone. A touch of jam and marmite is excruciatingly off-key. The lovely vegetable oil/potato mush aftertaste sticks in teeth gorgeously with a complex, crispy cold chips flavour.

Crunch: 8/10. Thick-cut cracker snap.

Remarks: Solid stuff from the mountain crew.

Overall: 7.5/10. Great crisps that get in, do the job and give an honest account of themselves.
