2Coop Outdoor Bred 6 Cumberland Sausages
pr Overall Score: 78/100
Juicy, succulent and well-seasoned. We loved the herby notes and kick from the pepper. A meaty texture, though some felt the skin was a touch chewy.

3M&S 6 Cumberland Sausages
43 Overall Score: 74/100
A strong peppery aroma with lots of parsley and sage. We enjoyed the herby flavour and the gentle heat from the pepper but found the pork flavour was overpowered. Juicy meat, but we struggled to chew through the skin.
In-store only, M&S, £3.20 for 6.

4Waitrose Free Range Cumberland Pork Sausages
pr Overall Score: 71/100
A gentle pork and peppery aroma, and the sage and thyme flavours come through nicely. But it was too peppery and the meat slightly cheap tasing. The texture was good, with the skin retains a crisp bite and is filled with juicy meat.

5Iceland Luxury 6 Cumberland Sausages
pr Overall Score: 71/100
A subtle yet sweet and meaty aroma with a nicely seasoned taste. Testers however found the kick from the pepper and chilli powders that lingered on the tongue far too long. Slightly oily with an overly smooth sausage meat texture.

6Edwards of Conwy Cumberland Sausages
pr Overall Score: 71/100
A moist sausage with lots of herbs. Testers liked the slightly sweet aroma with parsley and sage adding some depth, but it was subtle overall. Black pepper gave a nice heat, but we found the flavour was overly herby and unbalanced with a too-smooth meat texture.
BUY NOW Ocado, £3.00 for 6.

7Tesco 6 Cumberland Pork Sausages
43 Overall Score: 69/100
Gentle sweetness with a herbed, peppery aroma. We liked the quality of the sausage meat, well-seasoned and sweet with a peppery hit, however some testers found the spice overwhelming. Although very juicy, we disliked the chewy skin and oily mouthfeel.

8Sainsbury's Taste the Difference 6 Cumberland Sausages - The Peppery One
pr Overall Score: 66/100
A meaty and herby aroma, but these sadly didn’t come through enough in taste. It was overwhelmingly peppery and we disliked the chewy skin and the soft, moist meat texture.

Jonathan_Yates Overall Score: 66/100

10Artisan Finnebrogue Naked Sausages Cumberland
pr Overall Score: 64/100
Deliciously salty in aroma with a slightly herb, speckled appearance. There is a hint of pepper and sweetness, but testers felt the poor-quality meat and dense texture reminded them of a Frankfurter sausage instead.
BUY NOW Ocado, £3.00 for 6.
