Kent Crisps is a genuine regional crisp company, not a fake artisan brand manufactured by a corporation. Based in Ashford, using local ingredients where possible, they represent what British crisp-making could be if more companies cared.
Sea Salt is their purest expression. Hand-cooked, thick-cut, with the irregular shapes and bubbled surfaces that signal actual craft. These are crisps made by people rather than purely by machines.
The potato flavour is excellent. Earthy and genuine, the taste of vegetable coming through the cooking process. The sea salt enhances rather than masks. There’s restraint here, confidence that the base product is good enough to need only minimal seasoning.
The texture is substantial without being heavy. Crunchy but not aggressive. The crunch of crisps made properly rather than engineered for maximum uniformity.
Regional pride
Kent Crisps costs more than supermarket alternatives. The premium buys genuine quality from a company that cares about its product and its place. For some people, that matters. For those people, these are worth every penny.
