Shortbread House of Edinburgh's Lemon Biscuit Tin 140g

Do NOT buy these unless you want to get seriously addicted. These delicious cookies are buttery with a hint of toffee and a pleasing mouthfeel and crunch. Each bite should be eaten slowly with your eyes closed, imagining every molecule bursting on your tongue. They are indeed pricey for the size but worth every dollar.

Very traditional and tasty shortbread. Ii was impressed by packaging type which kept contents from breaking during shipping

Really wonderful shortbread, packed freshly and safely. Better than that Walker's or Campbell's chalk. Wonderful stuff that delights the palate and tongue!

Best Scottish shortbread cookies ever! I was introduced to them in St Andrew’s in 2003.

I bought these to include in a gift and am really happy with them for that purpose. Based on the reviews I was worried they would show up broken, but all three boxes arrived with the cookies in great condition.The cute packaging makes them feel nicer than a random box from the grocery store, and the taste and texture are good (got the three pack and immediately snagged one of the extra boxes to keep for myself, lol). The crystallized ginger is well balanced & present without being too sharp or overpowering. The box is also a good size for fitting into a gift basket or box- looks about 4" x 6" or so.That said I would buy them again for gifting, but it was for myself I'd just go for homemade or a less expensive store-bought. They do taste nice but I think you also pay a steep premium for the packaging/branding. I also wish they were all butter rather than including vegetable oils, but that's on me for not reading the ingredients list.

Nice tin, so-so biscuits.

Finger length shortbread biscuits arrived as described: 6 packets of 2 flavours in each box. My boxes arrived in a few days, no breakage. Each flavour, original, stem ginger & dark chocolate orange, are all equally excellent. In partial to simple and prefer the original. Texture is crispy crumbly for both original & orange. The stem ginger is also crispy crumbly with a tad bit of a chew. The ginger is likely the culprit but it’s still nice. I’m not really a shortbread connoisseur but I have tried walkers and a few other brands. I’ll just say I like my shortbread thick, crispy and crumbly and I’ve already ordered more of the original flavour. ;0)

truly a delight, so buttery with a little chocolate, very tasty
