The best Christmas hampers of 2019

10/07/2019

Christmas hampers are a thing of wonder. As soon as the season is upon us, you can bet we’ll be agonising over whether to splash out one filled with wine, cheese or desert… although, actually, we think we’ll go for all three.

One of the best things about Christmas is, of course, the amount of decadently delicious food on offer. From sticky, stodgy puddings to creamy blocks of cheese paired with platter of crackers and copious amounts of wine, it’s a time of year when all the best grub comes out to play.

Which is why we love a Christmas hamper. Stuffed full with all of our favourite, festive treats, hampers not only contribute to the feeling of occasion but make bloody good presents for your loved ones, too.

So whether you fancy surprising the family with a glorious, cheese and dessert packed hamper for Boxing Day, or buying a fancy wine hamper as a gift for a friend, we’ve picked out the best seasonal bundles which will help you say Merry Christmas like nothing else.

Here, we’ve compiled the best luxury Christmas hampers around to ensure you get your fill of the best c’s of Christmas: cheese, chutney, chocolate and Champagne. Cheers to that!
