Rugged revival

With its bold flavour, deeply satisfying crunch and nononsense ingredients

list, Rugged Peanut Butter has long

been a favourite among Butter Bike fans. Now, it's received

the ultimate seal of approval - a three-star rating in the

2025 Great Taste Awards, the highest honour from the

world's largest and most trusted food and drink awards. A

consistent best-seller, Rugged Peanut Butter is packed with

the finest, deeply roasted peanuts, carefully chosen not just

for their bold flavour, but also for their impressive nutritional

profile. Made with just two ingredients, Butter Bike uses

premium-grade hi-oleic peanuts sourced from Argentina,

known for their naturally higher levels of heart-healthy

monounsaturated fats, the same beneficial fats found in olive

oil and avocados. When richly toasted, they develop a subtly

sweet, deeply nutty flavour that's incredibly moreish. A touch

of Cornish sea salt balances the richness perfectly, delivering

a creamy, full-bodied mouthfeel that keeps people coming

back for more. Butter Bike Rugged Peanut Butter is suitable

for vegans.

It wasn't just Rugged turning heads as Butter Bike's

Hot Jalapeño Peanut Butter also earned a one-star award,

highlighting it as a standout product. The judges described

it as "gorgeous", praising its glossy texture, natural feel, and

"wonderful roast peanut scent." They loved the freshness of

the chilli and said they "could eat it by the spoonful.

Available from Not On The High Street, DELLI, Whole

Foods London, Selfridges, and a wealth of independent delis,

farm shops and speciality stores across the UK.
