Calbee Jaga Pokkuru Okhotsk Sea Salt taste
Calbee Jaga Pokkuru is a popular snack produced by Calbee, one of Japan’s leading snack manufacturers. Manufactured at their Chitose factory in Hokkaido and primarily sold locally, it's become a beloved souvenir from Hokkaido. The name "Jaga Pokkuru" combines "jagaimo" (potato) with "Korpokkur," legendary fairy-like beings from Ainu folklore.
Calbee+ is a popular snack specialty shop in Japan. The freshly fried fries are crispy on the outside and fluffy inside, and they come in a variety of well-loved flavors.
They also sell limited-edition potato chips, Jaga Pokkuru, and other items. The sakura shrimp–flavored fries are super tasty. It’s a must-visit spot for snacks and souvenirs when traveling in Japan. -
