Award-winning Christmas Gift

If you’re looking for a special gift for a foodie friend this Christmas then why not choose something new that has already won awards? The Great Taste Selection Tin by Stag Bakeries includes a selection of savoury biscuits that have each received a prestigious Great Taste Award. A perfect gift for cheese lovers as each savoury biscuit can be used as part of a cheeseboard too!

The new Great Taste Selection Tin includes the delicious Smoked Butter Oatcakes, a traditional rustic Scottish oatcake made with oats and butter that are gently smoked over oak and beech at the last commercial smokehouse in the Outer Hebrides. The tin also includes two flavours of Stag’s signature Water Biscuits, a Salt & Pepper Water Biscuit and Seaweed Water Biscuit. The seaweed water biscuit is made with a unique blend of seaweed that is sustainably sourced in the Isle’s sea lochs. It also won Best Scottish Speciality Product 2013 and the Nigel Barden Heritage Award which recognised use of heritage and provenance.

The award-winning savoury biscuits are packed into a black-coloured reusable tin, making it a perfect Christmas gift. Available from selected independent speciality stores and Lakeland (www.lakeland.co.uk) 250g, RRP £9.99. 

Splat provides marketing and PR services to Stag Bakeries, a family-owned bakery located in Stornoway on the Isle of Lewis in the Scottish Outer Hebrides. The multi award-winning bakery produces a wide range of sweet and savoury biscuits that include their Signature Water Biscuit, based on an age-old recipe that fisherman used to take with them to enjoy on their long journeys at sea. Other specialities include traditional Scottish Oatcakes and the award-winning seaweed range. The Stornoway Water Biscuit with Hebridean Seaweed was voted Best Scottish Speciality Product in the 2013 Great Taste Awards.
