Of all of the chip flavors I’ve tried and loved, I don’t imagine I’ve ever had barbeque-flavored Doritos. I imagine there’s a Daring BBQ taste accessible in Canada, however I assume each time I’ve been north, I’ve prioritized All Dressed chips as an alternative. BUT NOW, a brand new Doritos taste is obtainable within the US — Doritos Candy & Tangy BBQ.
True to Doritos’ well-established model identification of delivering daring flavors, these Candy & Tangy BBQ Doritos regarded and smelled like they have been filled with taste proper out of the bag. There was a robust aroma of vinegar, candy barbeque, and tons of seasoning powder.
Perhaps it’s as a result of this explicit seasoning is fairly darkish, however these regarded very closely seasoned, which I want. However the style actually did shock me a bit bit. Initially, the corn chip taste stands out MUCH extra with this than it does within the conventional Doritos Nacho Cheese taste. I’m not completely positive why however I believe it’s as a result of the nacho cheese seasoning is rather more salty and savory, and this chip is fairly candy.
The opposite shock is the distinct lack of smoke. Perhaps I ought to have assumed this with a reputation like Candy & Tangy, however this depends closely on the BBQ taste spectrum of tomato, vinegar, and brown sugar. I didn’t discover it smoky in any respect, and it was very a lot NOT like the usual BBQ potato chip flavors you’d discover on the market. There was a crisp acidic tang within the end and aftertaste.
General I discovered these Doritos to be fairly distinctive. I believe they’ve managed to hit a BBQ taste in an excellent particular means with the candy acid punch whereas nonetheless delivering a crowd-pleaser. I nonetheless want the OG Nacho Cheese taste, however this can be a compelling addition to the Doritos lineup.
