Our Hampers - a brand new look with a sustainable focus

Our Hampers - a brand new look with a sustainable focus

In the past few months our hampers have had a bit of a makeover, changes that we have implemented with you, the customer, in mind.
We haven’t changed the handpicked quality packed on the inside, which is chosen with enormous care but we wanted to ensure we put the same thought into our packaging solutions. 
The focus for us was on sustainable materials, the aim; to use only use eco-friendly wrapping which was 100% recyclable, biodegradable or re-usable, with no plastic, without compromising on the embellishment needed to convey that these are carefully chosen gifts. 
We’re excited to share their new look and feel with you and truly hope that you love it as much as we do.

Depending on the number of contents, we now use either classic plain or fluted kraft boxes, sturdy ply wood crates or natural wicker baskets made from steamed autumn willow, durable and versatile, options whose use will stretch beyond the consumption of the products contained inside.
We have used recyclable corrugated kraft sleeves to protect delicate product, sealed with recyclable kraft tape and done away with all bubblewrap, instead using wood shred when required. 

Each hamper is lined with undyed tissue paper and when closed, secured with elegant black and white twine.  The names of our hampers are inspired by the beautiful coves and townlands of our native Co. Waterford and so each hamper is identified with its own old-fashioned name tag.

Many of us have occasions when we decide to cut down, or take a break from alcohol. This can be for health reasons, having early deadlines to meet, or that we are the designated driver. Much of our socialising has traditionally been constructed around social drinking, and while water and soft drinks are an alternative, some of us just like the taste of alcohol when out.
The practical definition of alcohol-free used by most countries is under 0.5% alcohol by volume (ABV). The good news is how much easier it is to go alcohol-free, compared even a few years ago. The move to alcohol-free, or low in alcohol drinks for some of our choices, is being firmly embraced and in fact, it is largely consumer driven. As a result, the quality and selection available now has made the choice easier and more appealing.
