Three steam holes, always a good sign.

A plain looking pie, but one with potential.

Very traditional filling, fruity and tangy. Not quite filled to the top though.

Reviewers Comments and Guessed Origin
"Initially tasted a bit odd, grew on me towards the end."
"A fruity filling, and not a bad biscuity crust but there's nothing that sets it above all the other pies. Decent."
"Haven't we had this before?"
"Quite liked this one, better than the company pie."
"It was dry. Filling had potential but was lacking in moisture. Didn't enjoy this one much I'm afraid"



Packaging Description
6 Luxury Mincemeat Tarts.
These luxury mincemeat tarts have been baked in the secluded village of Aberlour, Strathspey in the heart of the Scotish Highlands. They are produced with every care and attention using the finest ingredients possible to obtain. Whilst traditionally mincemeat tarts are served warm as a desert with cream or custard, they are also delicious served at any time with tea or coffee.
