Calbee Kataage Potato Chips Oni-Umai Black Pepper Flavor 65g x 12 Packs

This series is that the more you chew, the more flavor comes out. These are not the usual light, thin potato chips. Thick-cut potato slices are fried slowly and carefully to create a firmer, crunchier bite with more substance. Because they take more chewing, the aroma, starch sweetness, and layered flavor of the potato open up more fully in the mouth, which is exactly why this series has remained so popular.

Calbee Kataage Potato Chips Oni-Umai Black Pepper Flavor is one of the bolder savory flavors in the Kataage Potato lineup. Compared with standard black pepper chips that mainly rely on surface heat, this version builds its character through the combination of thick-cut crunch, lingering black pepper sharpness, and a deeper savory finish.

The official product page explains that the flavor uses black pepper in a mix of larger and smaller particle sizes so the peppery heat lasts longer as you chew. It also uses roasted onion powder as a hidden flavor note to create a more savory aftertaste. The result is not simply hot or salty, but a more layered Japanese thick-cut potato chip with pepper spice and umami depth.
