Of the many extraordinary culinary exports that Ireland is famed for, two of our absolute favorites are its hearty, homey potatoes and creamy, full-flavored cheeses. So when one of our buyers happened upon the both of them combined into one superbly savory snack, you can imagine how excited we were. In fact, you’re in luck—you don’t have to imagine, because Trader Joe’s Cashel Blue® Cheese Irish Potato Chips have arrived! Made for us by an esteemed Irish supplier, using Irish Potatoes and flavored with Cashel Blue® Cheese, these satisfyingly crisp Chips bring a bit of elevated, Emerald Isle elegance to any situation that calls for snacking.

Cashel Blue® is largely considered to be Ireland’s most popular cheese, and with every bite of these Chips, you’ll see why: even when translated into the context of a Potato Chip, Cashel Blue®’s cool creaminess and ripe, piquant overtones clearly come through. In addition to making a lovely side with a salad, soup, or sandwich, we find that their rich flavor makes them a prime candidate for serving alongside other cheeses and charcuterie— along with a crisp white wine or glass of whiskey, of course. Just be sure to pick up a bag sooner rather than later, because Trader Joe’s Cashel Blue® Cheese Potato Chips are only available during the holidays.
