The Capira potato: the heart of our artisanal chips
When it comes to a good snack, everything starts with the main ingredient. In our case, that base is the Capira potato, a Colombian variety that stands out for its unique qualities and turns something as simple as a chip into an authentic flavor experience.
The Capira potato is characterized by its yellow flesh, responsible for that appetizing golden color you see in each of our chips. But it is not just appearance: its balance between starch and moisture allows for a crispy texture on the outside and a light bite, without excess grease. This means every chip has that perfect "crunch" you're looking for, without feeling heavy.
Another of its great attributes is its flavor. Unlike other more neutral varieties, the Capira has a more intense and natural profile, which allows us to offer a snack with its own character, without the need for artificial additives. It is a potato that tastes like a potato, and that makes all the difference.
In addition, its performance when fried is ideal. Thanks to its composition, it browns evenly and maintains its structure, avoiding brittle or irregular chips. This not only improves the quality of the final product, but also the experience of those who enjoy it.
In our process, we respect these qualities to the fullest. We carefully select each potato, cut it uniformly, and prepare it using artisanal techniques that preserve its essence. We do not seek to transform the raw material, but rather to highlight the best of it.
Choosing the Capira potato is no coincidence: it is a conscious decision to offer a more honest, more natural snack with a local identity. Because we believe that when you start with a good ingredient, the result speaks for itself.
This is how our chips are born: from the land, with a potato that has it all, to your hands, in the form of a snack that is truly worth enjoying.
