Description

For those who take Christmas food very seriously.

Our Christmas Connoisseur Hamper is a generous celebration of exceptional cheese, festive feasting and some of our favourite Bayley & Sage treats. At its heart is a magnificent cheeseboard, with creamy Cropwell Bishop Blue Stilton, silky Baron Bigod, mature Cheshire Vintage Gold Cheddar, Gourmino Surchoix Gruyère, 24-month Comté and truffle-laced Moliterno.

There’s Gardet Brut Champagne to pour alongside it, plus hand-carved Iberico ham, three varieties of Bayley & Sage crackers, Festive Chutney and Piccalilli for a spread made for long afternoons around the table.

And because Christmas calls for plenty of something sweet, we’ve included a classic Panettone, rich Figgy’s Christmas Pudding, Bayley & Sage Mince Pies and buttery Shortbread, finished with our Giant Milk Chocolate Coin.

Abundant, celebratory and made for sharing, this is a Christmas hamper to make an occasion of. A wonderful gift for food-loving friends and family, and an impressive choice for clients, colleagues and teams.
