Maine Crisp Co.’s Savory Fig & Thyme Crisps achieve a perfect balance. There’s earthy buckwheat mellowed with a touch of maple syrup. Nutty walnuts mingling with sweet dried fig. A medley of flavors in each petite, crunchy cracker. These happen to be vegan and gluten-free, but all cheese lovers will enjoy building a bite on this standout canvas. We’d choose peppery Valdeon or bright Montealva, along with a dollop of your favorite jam.
“Buckwheat and hemp make for one tasty gluten-free cracker. I love these savory crisps with any goat cheese, fresh like Capri or with a bit of age like Selles-sur-Cher.”

- Maine Crisp Co. uses buckwheat as the base for their crackers. Despite its name, buckwheat is not related to wheat—it's a flowering plant related to rhubarb whose seeds can be ground into flour.
- The buckwheat flour used in these crackers is certified gluten-free, and the crisps are produced in a dedicated gluten-free facility.
- Buckwheat more closely mimics the texture of wheat than the typical components of gluten-free crackers like rice or corn. These crunchy crackers satisfied many gluten-loving staff members at Murray’s.
- Not all Maine Crisp Co. products are vegan, but these are, as they contain maple syrup instead of honey.
- There’s a reason why these crisps have “savory” in the name—the sweetness from the maple and bits of dried fig is balanced by thyme, sea salt, and black pepper.
- There’s a reason why Maine Crisp Co.’s crackers pair so well with cheese—the company is the brainchild of cheesemaker Karen Getz.
- After years of baking bread, Karen and her family moved to Vermont where she pursued dairy farming and cheesemaking, going on to win several awards from the American Cheese Society.
- A move to Waterville, Maine, inspired Karen with the quality of Maine-grown buckwheat, and Maine Crisp Co. was born.
- All Maine Crisp Co. products are wheat-free and gluten-free, crafted with buckwheat from Bouchard Family Farm in Aroostook County, Maine.
