ABOUT SAHALE SNACKS

(from their press release)

Sahale Snacks was founded in Seattle in 2003 by Josh Schroeter and Edmond Sanctis after climbing Mt. Rainier and enduring days of inspiring trail mix and energy bars. The two friends set out to create a natural and healthy snack that tasted great The company follows a simple philosophy: Start with natural whole foods, add a dash of culinary magic and offer busy consumers convenient, delightful, healthy snacks. Sahale Snacks is dedicated to helping people "Snack Better."

The founders named the company after Sahale Peak, which is north of the Cascade Pass in the North Cascades National Park in Washington State. Pronounced "sah-HA-lee," it's a beautiful peak with a cool glacier and great views.

     Sahale Snacks is launching a new line of Seasoned Nuts that features all-natural herbs and spices. They are also made using a slow, oven roasting process. The first blend in this series is Barbeque Almond with Mild Chipotle + Ranch. This blend is made with the classic flavors of a backyard barbeque and are combined in Sahale Snack's proprietary "dry rub", spice blend, accented with the cool tanginess of buttermilk ranch.

     To make Barbeque Almond with Milk Chipotle + Ranch, each almond is carefully coated with spices, then slow roasted to perfection. The resulting seasoned nuts have a hint of heat from the chipotle pepper, the sweetness of buttermilk and the smoky warmth of barbeque spices.

     I tried out the Barbecue Almond with Milk Chipotle + Ranch right when I received my box. I could not resist myself from opening the bag! I was super impressed when I tried out these almonds! They were a perfect taste. They weren't to spicy to the taste at all. They had a barbecue flavor with a slight kick to them. I really enjoyed these almonds! They were a great treat and I will definitely purchase some more!

     The Cashew with Pomegranate + Vanilla are made with a perfect combination of sublime flavors that include: pomegranate, vanilla, and cashews. The cashews are roasted and teamed with pomegranate and apple, and balnaced with pure vanilla bean. The light glaze adds just the right amount of sweetness!

     My all time favorite kind of nut is the cashew! I was excited to try these cashews with Pomegranate and Vanilla to see what the excitement was all about! I can tell you I was not disappointed! These cashews are very hard to put down after trying them! Once you have one, you will definitely want many more! The vanilla and pomegranate brought a great flavor to the cashews that were amazing! It really reminded me of a dessert! That's how good they were! I definitely will be purchasing these cashews again sometime soon!

     The Ksar Pistachios is a exotic, piquant combination of pistachio sweetened by figs and honey, and finished with a peppery kick of Moroccan harissa.

     The Ksar Pistachios was very different to me. It really reminded me of trail mix. It was good, but it really was different to me than regular pistachios!

     The Valdosta Pecans are made with black-peppered pecans and sweet cranberries.

     I will tell you I am not a fan of Pecans at all! You will never catch me eating pecans until now! I was skeptical when trying these out because I'm usually not a fan of pecans! I was really impressed with the Valdosta Pecans. The Valdosta Pecans have a sweet taste to them and the cranberries are delicious to eat as well! The pecans were one of my favorites of the Sahale Snacks I tried out! They are very hard to eat just one!

     If you are wanting a quick snack for on the go then purchase Sahale Snacks! They will satisfy you with their amazing different flavors and tastes! Sahale Snacks creators are a genius for making such unique and outstanding healthy snacks!

I definitely recommend Sahale Snacks to you!
