Default Haggis

Does anyone know where I can buy a haggis (preferably free range) in the altea/benidorm are? My scottish wife is planning a Burns night supper. I'm not very keen on haggis but I enjoy the whisky!

Wouldn't swear to it, but I have a feeling I saw them in Hipercor - failing that have you got a British butcher or general shop nearby? They'd possibly be able to source it for you?
Good luck

Hi I have not seen free range nor other haggi for sale around here (Sevilla) I can recommend Grants tinned variety (sacrilege I know) you could check their website and see if enough time to post out.

Hi Petew, I see you live in Albir (same as me), check out Jackie Breslin (manager/owner) of Albir bowls club, he's very Scottish. He had a great burns night there a while back complete with all the trimmings, speeches etc. He would be more than happy to help you. Tuk-tuk.

For some reason I think I may have seen some in Super La Nucia Supermarket but am not terribly sure.

I've just looked at their site and they want 8 pounds for a haggis "for 4 - 5 people", plus 38 pounds for delivery!

The Haggis is a funny Beast
To make it, strong men toil
But in cooking, it is delicate
NEVER should it boil.

See below there noooooooooo

That appears the standard charge if you add another haggis and a few other things from the site the cost is still the same. Maybe another sweaty could split the postage with you if you add his order to yours. Or send to UK address and they can send onto you here in Spain at a fraction of that price.
