I’m already a voracious consumer of 50Hertz’s Tingly Peanuts, so when the new Tingly Cashews landed, I ripped the bag open with the enthusiasm of someone expecting a familiar favorite. Instead, I discovered an entirely different flavor universe.
Where the peanuts are bold and straightforward, the Tingly Cashews are their elegant, slightly mischievous counterpart. The moment you open the bag, a vibrant green Sichuan pepper aroma rises up—bright, citrusy, and unmistakably 50Hertz. The cashews themselves are plush and buttery, but what really sets them apart is the seasoning: a soft floral zing, a whisper of sweetness, and that signature tingle that builds in waves rather than a single punch.
It’s yin and yang, night and day, jazz versus rock—related, but with their own undeniable swagger.
The result is dangerously munchable. I told myself I’d have a handful; I did not have a handful. These cashews are the kind of snack that disappears while you’re still convincing yourself you’re in control.
And as always with 50Hertz, the quality behind the flavor shines through. Their Sichuan pepper is hand-picked, manually sorted, no black seeds, with a bright color and potent aroma that makes every bite feel alive.
In short:
A completely different personality from the Tingly Peanuts—more nuanced, more aromatic, and absolutely addictive. A must-try for anyone who loves the 50Hertz tingle.
