What potatoes do you use?

To make the best chips we use four main varieties of potato: Premiere, Morene, Pentland Dell and Maris Piper.

  • Premiere potatoes are an 'early' variety, planted and harvested early in the season.
  • Morene is a 'second early', planted in the spring and harvested in late summer.
  • Maris Piper and Pentland Dell are 'maincrops', planted in April and harvested in the autumn.
