Create the Perfect Wine Hamper

Wine is a commonly used item to celebrate birthdays, anniversary’s, and say thank you to people. First4Hampers offer a carefully selected range of fine wines suitable for even the most refined of palettes, and for those wanting wine gifts it is the ideal place to buy the perfect present.
Two wines which stand out are that of Abadia Raimat Crianza and Raimat Abadia Blanc de blanc, which are red and white respectively. For any lovers of red wine, Abadia Raimat Crianza offers a mouth watering feast, with hints of tobacco, stewed fruits and plums. Meanwhile the taste buds will sense an extraordinary mix of toast, pepper, and coconut amongst the blend which consists of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Tempranillo and Syrah.
Elsewhere, the Raimat Abadia Blanc de blanc is the perfect addition to any seafood meal. Produced in Spain, it is a smooth blend of Albarino and Chardonnay, offering a mix of tropical fruit in its bouquet. Refreshing for the palette, the wine gives hints of grapefruit and pineapple in its medium bodied form.
To set off these wine gifts in beautiful style, First4Hampers also offer a gorgeous Antique Effect Wooden Box which holds two bottles of wine or spirits. A fantastic addition to any wine gift, bottles can be presented in rustic style rather in the normal gift bag or wrapping offering and as such, the gift will be remembered for years to come. And with the beautiful box being reused time and time again, wine gifts from First4Hampers can really excite both the mind and the palette.

Pimm’s Cocktail Basket

Nothing beats a glass of Pimms on a summer’s day. The British beverage is almost as much a tradition as the cup of tea, and the British down the gin-based drink by the gallon during the summer months.

Recipe for Traditional Pimms No.1:

Take one slice of orange, lemon, apple, cucumber per person and one sprig of mint and one strawberry and add to two parts lemonade to one part Pimms.

The ingredients for this delicious cocktail are included in our popular Pimms Cocktail Basket, which is available for only £35.00 and is available for a limited time only.

History of Pimms:

Rewind back to a London oyster bar in the 1840s where owner James Pimm invented the thirst-quencher. Using gin, quinine and a secret mixture of herbs, good old Pimm served up the brew as an aid to digestion, dishing it out in a small tankard and the No. 1 Cup moniker was born.

After the Second World War, Pimms extended their range, using a number of other spirits as bases for new cups. Scotch lent its name to No. 2 cup while No. 3 used brandy, No. 4 rum, No. 5 rye and No. 6 vodka. Of these sequels, the vodka cup and brandy (now called Winter) are the only ones in production while original No. 1 cup still reigns supreme in popularity.
