7 GREAT TASTE AWARDS 2025

O'DONNELLS win 7 GREAT Taste Awards 2025

We are absolutely thrilled to announce that O’DONNELLS Crisps have just been awarded a total of 7 Great Taste Awards (2 of 2-star and 5 of 1-star) in the world’s most trusted food and drink accreditation scheme. O’DONNELLS are the only crisp brand in The UK and Ireland to win so many coveted awards.

Recognised as a stamp of excellence and actively sought out by food lovers and retailers alike, the Great Taste accreditation scheme, organised by the Guild of Fine Food, values taste above all else. Each product in the line-up for judging is blind-tasted and all packaging is removed, so it cannot be identified, before entering a robust, layered judging process.

Thank you so much to The Guild of Fine Food and Great Taste judges, we are proud beyond belief.

Ireland’s Number 1 hand cooked crisp brand launches Furrows Crinkle Cut Crisps! After ten years at the top, O’Donnells, Ireland’s favourite hand cooked crisp brand brings a new range of premium crinkle cut crisps to market! Borne of a centuries old farming legacy, in the heart of Tipperary’s Golden Vale, O’Donnells Furrows deliver crisp perfection in taste and flavour, unlike any other. The deep grooves of the furrows ploughed on the family farm were the inspiration for this new product. The extra deep ridges capture even more of the unbeatable taste and flavour that O’Donnells fans know and love. After perfecting the classic pairings of Mature Cheese & Red Onion and Irish Cider Vinegar and Sea Salt, siblings Ed and Kate O’Donnell sought to pack even more flavour punch into each and every bite, “When looking to create a brand new crisp we went back to our roots, taking it all the way back to our family farm in Tipperary where the magic begins. Ploughing provided the perfect inspiration for our new crinkle cut crisps, O’Donnells Furrows. Each groove in the crisp captures the maximum amount of O’Donnells flavour.” O’Donnells Furrows available in two delicious options, Mature Cheese & Red Onion and Irish Cider Vinegar and Sea Salt. Available in 50g single serve and 125g share bags, they are the perfect snack to savour by yourself or to enjoy with friends. O’Donnells are working to reduce the environmental impact of packaging waste and have made a significant reduction on the film used for O’Donnells bags. O’Donnells are committed to reducing their impact on the planet. O’Donnells crisps are gluten free and use no artificial colours or flavours and no MSG/GM ingredients.
