Father’s Day is just around the corner, so now is the right time to pick out a gift for dear old Dad. Whether you’re coordinating with siblings or it’s just you, a gift hamper full of cheese and other goodies will be the highlight of his day, even before he starts snacking!
This year, we’ve created 10 brand new hampers just for Dad. From modest selections that can accompany other gifts to huge, premium hampers that can be shared with the whole family, we have everything you need if your dad loves cheese.
Why Hampers Make Great Gifts
A gift hamper has always been a classic choice for Father’s Day or a similar occasion. Not only is it a nice collection of gifts all in one place, a quality hamper looks amazing on a display and gets a ‘wow’ when you hand it over.
Customers tell us that our hampers have been used for celebrations, thankyous, condolences, and much more over the years.
That’s why we like to create cheese hampers that are designed for a specific occasion. But this year, we’ve really gone above and beyond, creating far more hampers than we have for single-day events in the past, including Christmas!
So to help you choose the right one, let’s explain the pros and cons of each, so you’ll pick Dad’s favourite.
Alcohol-Free Cheese Gift Hampers
We understand that, although some of our most popular accompaniments are alcohol, not every dad is a drinker, or might not be a fan of beer and ale specifically.
Our simplest hamper is The Hartington Dad’s Selection. It contains one cheese, one box of biscuits, and one pot of chutney. The truckle or cheese wedge is big enough for a couple of nights of snacking, or it can be added to lunch the following day.
If you’re looking for an additional gift for Father’s Day, this mini hamper is a great choice.
We also have The Father’s Cheeseboard selection, which, as the name suggests, contains more cheese so you or dad can make a nice spread to share alone or with guests. Also included is a bag of ‘Snacking Cheese’ from our friends at Serious Pig, which does exactly what it says on the bag.
If you’d rather splash out a little more, The Artisan Father’s Selection contains three cheeses, two boxes of biscuits, and a large pot of chutney. Still no alcohol, but plenty to enjoy over a few days, or to make a large cheeseboard with.
If you want even more cheese, or can’t pick five favourites, The Heritage Father’s Selection is for you. With a whopping six cheeses, as well as two biscuit boxes, two chutneys, and two bags of Snacking Cheese, this is a tonne to share.
Cheese Gift Hampers with Beer
If Dad is a fan of beer, we have some hampers that contain plenty of the good stuff.
Alcohol is a great accompaniment to cheese, as a way to wash it down and cleanse the palette before you try a new combination of flavours. Contrary to popular belief, wine is not the only option, and our locally made ales do the job just as well.
The Dad’s Pairing Selection contains two cheese, one biscuits, one chutney, and two Peak Ales, making it great for just Dad to enjoy. Dad’s Cheese and Beer Selection has just one of everything, if you want to keep things simpler.
The Father’s Beer and Cheese Selection contains three cheese wedges, two biscuits, one chutney, two beers, and a bag of Snacking Cheese as an added bonus. And the Hartington Pairing Selection is the perfect in-between, and may just become a permanent addition to our store if Dad wants more!
Cheese Hampers for Sharing
Our cheese gift hampers aren’t always designed with just a single person in mind. Father’s Day is a family affair, and although he might want to keep his favourites to himself, we’ve created hampers that have plenty to go around.
Naturally, The Hartington Sharing Collection was designed with that in mind. Four cheese wedges, two biscuits, a chutney, and two bags of Snacking Cheese. You can make a large cheeseboard, or enjoy it together over a few nights. Our cheese keeps for a while, so you won’t need to rush, and nothing will go to waste.
Last but certainly not least, our Peak District Father’s Selection is the biggest premium gift hamper in our new collection. Five cheese, two biscuits, two chutneys, three beers, and two bags of Snacking Cheese make it the most you can get from a single hamper.
Our Best Cheese Gift Hampers
We know that 10 hampers, all with similar contents, can be a too much choice, and although we hate to pick favourites, here are the three we think are best:
The Hartington Dad’s Selection – Our smallest hamper, so the best to add alongside other gifts or for anyone on a tight budget.
The Father’s Beer and Cheese Selection – The best of both worlds, as it contains a bit of everything, and can be enjoyed alone or shared.
The Peak District Father’s Selection – Plenty of everything; ideal for if Dad deserves to be spoiled this year.
All our Father’s Day hampers can be customised. This means that if there’s a particular type of cheese you know your dad likes, you can add it to any hamper no problem. We can include wedges and truckles, and you can change the flavour of the chutneys and even the beers too!
No matter which hamper you decide to go for, by choosing Hartington Creamery you know for sure that Dad is in for a treat. We create high-quality artisan cheese using traditional methods, unlocking more flavour than any factory can guarantee.
We hope that your dad enjoys the hamper you pick out for him, and be sure to let him know there’s plenty more cheese on our site, if he gets a taste for it!
