The Peanut Shop of Williamsburg Hot Habanero Chile Pepper Virginia Peanuts, Williamsburg Peanuts Store Gourmet Gift - 10.5 Oz Tin

These nuts are awesome. Very flavorful and what I love most is the crunchy texture. Best peanut I’ve ever tasted. I’ve purchased multiple times the lightly salted and they are absolutely the best peanut I’ve ever eaten. However, the salt and pepper peanuts are extremely disappointing! They are small and have very little flavor! I would not recommend purchasing the salt and pepper nuts. After all my purchases from this company I was very very disappointed!

Great flavor, not spicy. Please shake before you open.

Meets expectations

My wife likes peanuts. Me … not something I think about. So, I was surprised when she began ordering little cans of, I guess Planters peanuts, the Spanish kind with the little red skins everywhere, how much I liked them. They are a little salty and slightly sweet. So, when she wanted to get some Virginia Peanuts, I thought, ‘’Why not?”. But, I like salt and pepper, so I bought these. One thing I’ll give them is that they taste great, once you crunch them up. The salt and pepper ratio is just right for me. And, they are nice and big without any of those annoying little red skins to flake off an get everywhere. These are excellent Virginia Peanuts, if Virginia Peanuts are your things … I have some friends who won’t eat anything EXCEPT Virginia Peanuts, mind you. Now, however, maybe it is because these are the first Virginia Peanuts I’ve had, or maybe it’s because these aren’t quite cooked enough. But, I find them a bit too crunchy. They do NOT taste undercooked, but they are just extremely crunchy. And, whether it is a feature of Virginia Peanuts (versus Spanish Peanuts) that these peanuts aren’t as ‘sweet’ as Spanish Peanuts, or whether they don’t taste as sweet as Spanish Peanuts because this batch wasn’t cooked as long, I don’t know. Still, I liked them, and I may buy them again, but first I may buy some other brands of Virginia Peanuts to see if they are different.

DO NOT ORDER THESE. If you want them to be actually spicy just order direct from their website. The tin I received from amazon was completely flavorless and not spicy at all. The one I ordered from The Peanut Shop was how they used to be, very spicy and flavorful.

These peanuts taste great.

Not the same that I remember. Smaller peanuts and most were halves.

These peanuts have an extra-crisp crunch that sets them apart from grocery-store roasted peanuts. The 1 lb. can is a generous supply for two people throughout the holiday period.
