I fell in love with these at first bite. The salty, crispy potato chips are paired with sweet, rich chocolate, creating just the right balance of salty and sweet. The thick-cut chips make them even crunchier and more satisfying—definitely a guilty-pleasure snack. Whenever I see them at the duty-free shop before a flight, I want to buy a box to take home. Having them once in a while is such a treat〜

GRAND Calbee
Calbee, the famous potato chip brand launched sales of a special line in collaboration with Hankyu Umeda Main Store in 2014. Perfect as an easy gift, each crisp delivers the high end-taste of 100% Hokkaido-grown potatoes, with a one-of-a-kind thick-cut texture.
What sets GRAND Calbee apart is its thick-cut, crispy texture and variety of limited-edition flavors, making it suitable as either a snack or a gift. This time I bought the “Ariake Nori” flavor. It had a rich seaweed aroma and a savory, salty taste with plenty of umami. It was a pleasant surprise the first time I tried it, but it was also relatively expensive.
