Tesco Finest Mince Pies

Mincemeat pies made with a rich all butter shortcrust pastry filled with a luxury mincemeat containing vine fruits, almonds, walnuts and laced with Courvoisier® VS Cognac.

These pies look like they will be fantastic. But they are close to being very good but I think they could do with a touch more filling. The filling is very tasty and not over powered with the Cognac.

Tesco Deep Filled Mince Pies

6 deep filled mince pies. Shortcrust pastry cases filled with rich mincemeat and topped with sugar

Poor but not inedible. The pie itself offered a good look with its pastry star but this was to provide the decoy from the shallow filling and watery filling. It never really got going on the taste front, the thick pastry unsettling the balance of flavour.
