Black Pepper Jack

What is it?

Corn tortilla chips dusted with black pepper and pepper jack seasoning, this Doritos variety leans on two kinds of heat. Pepper brings a sharp, aromatic bite, while the cheese seasoning adds a milder jalapeho note and a little creamy saltiness. Compared with other Doritos flavors, it sits closer to the cheese end of the lineup than to salsa or chile-heavy chips. Crunchy throughout, with the seasoning clinging in a fine orange powder, each chip leaves a slow warmth on the tongue. It's a less common variety in the rotation, offering a subtler heat profile than the brand's more aggressive spicy options.
