Bolands

A Kimberley is a proper taste of Ireland, and not an easy biscuit to find on this side of the Irish Sea. We carry it both ways: Bolands Kimberley Biscuits, two ginger biscuits around a soft mallow centre with a sprinkle of sugar, and the chocolate-covered Elite Kimberley Teacake. Pull it apart or squeeze it, the mallow is the point.

About Bolands

Bolands is an Irish biscuit name from Jacob Fruitfield of Dublin, the business behind Jacob's biscuits, which Valeo Foods agreed to buy in 2011. The name is an old one in the city: Boland's Bakery on Grand Canal Street Lower was the headquarters of Eamon de Valera's 3rd Battalion during the 1916 Rising, when the Volunteers gave the bakers a holiday.

A Kimberley belongs with a strong Irish-style breakfast blend, brewed dark with plenty of milk, where the malty cup balances the sweet mallow and the ginger. The chocolate teacake works as an after-dinner piece with an Earl Grey or a cup of black coffee. It is a biscuit for people who already know it, and for anyone curious about what Ireland puts in the tin.
