Fairfields Farm is preparing for the 2026 Christmas season by announcing the return of its popular Honey Roasted Chestnut & Sage flavor chips.
Following a successful debut last holiday season, the Honey Roasted Chestnut & Sage flavors will once again be available as a seasonal offering. The unique chips combine the warm and nutty flavor of roasted chestnuts, along with the sweetness of honey and the herbaceous notes of sage. The result is a salty-sweet and festive flavor that's perfect for holiday gatherings. As Robert Strathern, Co-Founder at Fairfields Farm, explains, "There’s something magical about creating a flavour like this and seeing how much people love it, so we’re delighted to be bringing it back for another Christmas season.”
Fairfields Farm’s limited-edition Honey Roasted Chestnut & Sage chips will be available from September onwards from selected retailers and wholesaler depots.
