Tesco Finest Ham with Spiced Cola Glaze Crisps (Tesco) By @Cinabar
There isn’t a direct mention on the packet, but I fear these Tesco Finest Ham with Spiced Cola Glaze Crisps might be part of the Christmas range at Tesco. Maybe I’m imagining it, I’d prefer to think of them as an Autumn/Winter seasonal item.
My favourite flavours of crisps are the meaty varieties so I was keen to try these and I loved the sound of the spiced cola glaze as it is just so different. I was only saying the other week that I thought I’d got to the point with trying so many crisps over the years that whatever seemingly new flavour I was given it felt a bit like, “oh that one again”. There are nearly 450 crisps reviews on this site, so I think it is my obsession rather than an uninteresting market! These Tesco Finest Ham with Spiced Cola Glaze Crisps actually excited me, they sounded very different.
We opened the bag and the meaty aroma was very pleasing, it did smell like a Christmas (my bad) ham joint. The crisps are thick cut and quite crunchy, but they are part of the ‘Finest’ range which means they need to be seen to be different. The taste was mostly of juicy ham, and this was a very tasty meat base flavour. The glaze came across as a little sweet, a little spicy and a little smokey. It worked very well and complemented the ham perfectly. These are very good crisps and ones I’ll be buying again, I’m not sure I could have identified the undertones of cola if I’m completely honest, but I’m still glad I piked up the bag.
