The Review

Baked with melt in the mouth all butter pastry and luxury mincemeat flavoured with Glenfiddich Whisky

‘My initial thoughts weren’t favorable, the tart was dry in appearance although had a good weight to it. There was a strong smell of Glenfiddich which put me off before I’d tasted it. However I was pleasantly surprised after tasting it, although I ate it cold I think these pies would benefit from being heating and served with vanilla ice cream. There was a lingering aftertaste of Glennfiddich which I needed to wash away with a cup of tea. Not recommended for mince pie virgins.’ – Paul

‘First impressions of this luxury mince ‘tart’ were poor. Upon opening the box I was greeted with what can only be described as a awful whiskey scent cloud. However after the smell had dispersed the taste and texture was not that disappointing, on reflection a  fairly good mince pie with substantial filling.’ – Adam

‘Pastry dry, crunchy raisens, bad after taste and smells bad, yuks!’ – Su

    A friend gave me some of your mince pies, they were delicious. I live in Devon, so I would like to know where I can purchase some.

    If I am unable to purchase these delightful mince pies locally could I please have your Scottish address?

    Hello S Harder,

    We’re just a review site so they’re not actually our pies, however you should be able to buy Walkers Glenfiddich Mincemeat Tarts at any good super market, or local convenience store. This will need to be during the Mince Pie season which starts around mid October, but does get earlier every year so you could get lucky. As for finding them in Devon, this shouldn’t a problem as these Scottish Pies have travelled even further south, across the English Channel to the shores of Guernsey when you’ve probably seen on the Spotlight evening news.

    I wish you luck in your quest and please send us a review if and when you taste these pies again. If you happen to be visiting London at Christmas time be sure to hunt down some Konditor & Cook Mince Pies for the ultimate experience.
