A Washington local! Sometimes you don't have to be extra to be likeable (note to self). CB's keeps it minimal with just two ingredients and for the most part, it works.

The texture here is quite nice - thick and substantial without being difficult to work with. Not a crazy amount of oil separation drama (a welcome break from my usual natural peanut butter adventures), just a smooth, consistent spread that behaves. It's the kind of texture that makes for easy spreading onto a slice of toast.

Flavour-wise, it reminds me of good quality roasted peanuts - the kind you might get as a bar snack at a hotel bar. The salt level is well-balanced, complementing rather than competing with the natural nuttiness. While it doesn't have the complexity or depth of some darker roasted options in my collection, it's a reliable choice that delivers what it promises: straightforward peanut butter satisfaction.

Is it particularly memorable? Nah. But it's the kind of jar you'll find yourself reaching for regularly, not because it's exciting, but because it works. Think of it as the sensible shoes of the peanut butter world - not the ones you show off about, but the ones you wear quite often. A solid and dependable choice.
