Calbee Kata-Age Potato Chips - Salty (Shio) Wasabi
The ultimate hard-crunch kettle style chip returns with a perfectly balanced kick of Japanese heat! Calbee Kata-Age is legendary across Japan for its traditional batch-frying method, which yields an extraordinarily firm, thick, and satisfyingly loud crunch that releases deep potato flavor with every single bite. Back by popular demand for a limited time, this highly anticipated seasonal release pairs a clean, mineral salt base with the authentic, aromatic punch of premium Japanese horseradish.
🌟 The Kata-Age Shio Wasabi Experience
-
Authentic Azumino Wasabi: Seasoned with real wasabi powder sourced directly from the pristine alpine waters of Azumino City in Nagano Prefecture, delivering a genuine, sinus-clearing aroma without overwhelming sharpness.
-
Traditional Batch Fired Kettle Style: Thicker cut slices are slowly fried in small, low-temperature batches (Kata-Age method) to create uniquely folded, ultra-hard potato chips that maximize crunch duration.
-
Clean Savory Mineral Salt Finish: Enhanced with a delicate dusting of premium salt (Shio) to elevate the natural sweetness of the local Japanese potatoes while beautifully grounding the sharp bite of the fresh wasabi.
-
The More You Chew, The More Flavor Releases: Specially engineered so that the deep, savory umami oils trapped inside the rigid folds unfold dynamically the harder you crunch (Kari-Kari to Kamu hodo Umae!).
-
Standard 60-Gram Sharing Bag: Packaged in a beautiful matte green seasonal bag featuring graphics of freshly grated raw wasabi root on a traditional wicker basket basket display.
