You might think St. Patricks Day is a modern holiday. But, according to Time, “The March 17 celebration started in 1631 when the Church established a Feast Day [honouring] St. Patrick. He had been Patron Saint of Ireland who had died around the fifth century—a whopping 12 centuries before the modern version of the holiday was first observed.” So, if you’re looking to celebrate this ancient tradition with traditional foods, we have some suitably green-themed St. Patty’s Day gift hampers to choose from.
The Grande
We’re kicking off with the opulent Grande. This St. Patty’s Day gift hamper is stuffed to the gills with treats and tied off with a green luxury bow. First the wines… Torres Coronas Tempranillo Catalunya, Spain, Kleine Zalze Bush Vines Chenin Blanc, South Africa, Veramonte Sauvignon Blanc Reserva, Chile and Crusan Grenache-Merlot, Pays d’Oc, France all come in 75cl bottles to tempt any palette. Then snack on Edinburgh Preserves Wild Boar Pâté, Lindt Lindor Milk Chocolate Cornet Truffles, Grandma Wilds Butterscotch Cookies, Borders Lemon Drizzle Melts, Captain Tiptoes Dry Roasted Peanuts and more.
