Christmas Cheese Hampers & Gifts
Christmas cheese gifts, from a £10 truckle to a £250 hamper, all cut and packed fresh in York in the week they are delivered, not months ahead. Hampers with port, wine and pork pie; gift boxes for people who just want the cheese; the three Seasonal Selections that come back every December. Order by Monday 7 December to be sure of your day, and choose that day at checkout. We deliver right up to Christmas Eve and you can collect from Gillygate every day from 8 December.
Saturday 17th April 2027 – New World Wines paired with Old World Cheeses Virtual Tasting
Rule-breakers meet rule-makers. This tasting pairs bold, sunny wines from the New World with the classic cheeses of the Old, the ones Europe has been perfecting for centuries.

Some are a very happy accident. Either way, it's a trip around the world without leaving the sofa.
