Cheesy Gifts for Father’s Day

‘Cheesiness’ is something we often associate with our dads. Whether it’s the terrible jokes or questionable taste in music, some dads are as cheesy as our Dovedale Blue.

So for Father’s Day, why not return the favour? Our cheese is fantastic for gifting, and if your dad is a lover of all things cheese, we’re here to provide a treat for him to open in June.

The Best Gifts for Father’s Day

Just like with Valentine’s Day, a lot of Father’s Day gift ideas can be a bit too generic. The usual boxes of chocolate and tins of biscuits are great, you can’t go wrong with edible gifts, but if that’s what you’ve gotten your dad a few times in the past, maybe now is the time to mix things up a little.

When you have siblings, you also need to coordinate gift giving so that Dad isn’t getting the same thing twice. If your usual go-to gifts are already taken, it’s time to buy something more memorable.

Don’t worry, we’re here to help!

Why Cheese is a Great Gift

As we mentioned, edible gifts are always winners. Savoury snacks are especially good, but our cheese can be used for so much more than just snacking.

Our artisan cheeses include classic favourites like stilton and cheddar, as well as much bolder blue cheeses, and a few funky flavours too. No matter what cheese your dad likes, we have some of the best he’ll ever try.

This isn’t store-bought cheese, our masterpieces are made with love, and use traditional methods that unlock more flavour than any other brand can promise. But since we blend old-school techniques with modern technology, the cheese you buy will stay fresh for a while, just in case you want to order ahead or if Dad wants to save it for a special occasion.

Cheese Gift Hampers For Fathers Day

Instead of handing your dad a single wedge of cheese on Father’s Day, a lovingly crafted gift hamper is a much nicer present (although a whole cheese wheel would be sure to get a laugh!).

We have a few hamper options available. Most include more than just cheese, and also contain:

• Crackers/Biscuits
• Chutneys
• Charcuterie
• Alcoholic Beverages (including wine, port, and pale ale!)

This means that every hamper has everything needed to create a delicious cheese board, with the best accompaniments to go with your cheese, including something to wash it down with!

Dad won’t have to pop to the shops to pick up anything to enjoy with his cheese, and our hampers look fantastic when added to a pile of presents.

Here’s a few of our latest Father’s Day hampers:

The Hartington Dad’s Selection – One cheese, one box of biscuits, and one chutney.

The Father’s Beer and Cheese Selection – Three cheeses, two boxes of biscuits, one chutney, and two beers.

The Peak District Father’s Selection – Five cheeses, two boxes of biscuits, two chutneys, and three beers.

The best part about our gift hampers is that the contents aren’t set in stone. You can select multiple flavours of cheese, ideally Dad’s favourites, as well as the chutneys that you think he’ll like the most.

If you aren’t sure what’s best, and don’t want to ask Dad and give the game away, we have a few suggestions.

The Best Cheese for Father’s Day

Naturally, some dads are pickier than others. But as long as yours likes cheese and chutney, we’ll have something for him to enjoy.

Depending on the hamper you choose, you may have 2, 4, or 7 spaces to fill. If it’s the former, one white cheese that goes with anything, such as our Peakland White, would work great. Then you can select another classic, or a blue cheese that’s a lot more flavourful, such as our Blue Stilton or new Chatsworth Blue Cheese.

We also have some more ‘unusual’ flavours. This includes our Balti Spiced Cheese, Chocolate & Chilli Cheese, and Chilli Derby cheese, for dads that love anything with a bit of a kick to it. On the slightly milder side are our Cranberry & Orange Peel cheese or Smoked Tomato & Garlic cheese squares. All amazing flavours that you won’t find in the supermarket.

Spoil your Dad with Something Special

No matter what cheese you think your dad will like the most, or what size hamper you feel like treating him with, look no further than Hartington Creamery.

We always do our best to treat our customers like family, and our team is like a family too! So we love any opportunity to help you spoil your loved ones, and Father’s Day is no exception.

Get in touch today if you have any questions about our cheese, accompaniments, or anything else. And if you do decide to go for it, don’t forget to let us know what your dad thought of our amazing cheese!
