Simmers

A biscuit with real regional history deserves a place beside the chocolate multipacks. Ours is the Simmers Abernethy, a light and crumbly Scottish biscuit, only gently sweet and made without caraway seeds, from the name Forbes Simmers started in Hatton, Aberdeenshire, in 1888. If you want the biscuit your grandmother kept in the tin, this is it.

About Simmers

Simmers is one of Scotland's older biscuit names. Forbes Simmers started the business in 1888 by buying an existing bakery in Hatton, Aberdeenshire, and Simmers has been known for its Butter Biscuits ever since his day. Today the range is sold by Nairn's, the Edinburgh oatcake bakers.

Simmers suits anyone who wants a biscuit that stays out of the cup's way. An Abernethy is light, crumbly and only gently sweet, a good match for a strong, milky Assam or a Scottish breakfast blend, and quietly useful under a slice of mature cheddar. If you want chocolate, look elsewhere; if you want the biscuit your grandmother kept in the tin, this is it.
