How to Pick a Luxury Hamper

How to Choose a Harvey Nichols Hamper

Christmas is a time to pour yourself a cup of hot chocolate, sit by a roaring fire and show thanks to those you love and respect, and this includes colleagues, too. The tradition of selecting personal and thoughtful gifts for clients and workmates stretches back years – great conduct equals great business, after all.

So, what could be better than a selection of carefully curated and delicious treats and gifts all delivered in one perfect bundle? As Pierre Corneille said, “The manner of giving is worth more than the gift”. And so, with that in mind, we’ve done the hard work for you and compiled a divine selection of hamper options for you to choose from to put a smile on your colleagues' faces. In fact, this assortment is so tantalising, we suspect you’ll treat yourself to one, too – consider it a “well done’’ for all your hard work in the office this year.

Our Festive Christmas Food and Drink Hampers

Many adore the Santa Cutie. Why? Well, because it contains a gorgeous selection of cheesy Emmental and gouda rounds to tuck into along with your favourite crackers. And it even comes with a bottle of the fragrant Harvey Nichols sloe gin that’ll go down a treat come the evening. Plus, there’s even a mini-Christmas pudding, and unbeatable butter shortbread to munch on after the parlour games have been played (and won) and it’s time to settle down with a festive film. Or you could combine fabulous fizz, truffles and luxury nibbles in the aptly named All Things Nice, a selection sure to make someone feel loved this holiday season.

Festive Cocktail Hampers

To kick-start a festive Christmas gathering, The Ultimate Cocktail Party Hamper contains everything your colleagues need to re-create their favourite tipple. Complete with pre-mixed cocktails from all around the world, alongside the finest Premier Cru Champagne and Whispering Angel Rosé, this luxury hamper is sure to get the party started. If that’s not enough to tempt you, tuck into delicious nibbles and discover the rich flavours of salted caramel, dark chocolate, truffle, gouda, Emmental and plenty more. Created with the inspiring mottos “go big or go home” and “living your best life” in mind, this hamper is sure to leave a lasting impact.

Festive Spirits Hampers

There’s no denying that Christmas is a time of indulgence. So, we’re sure you can only agree that the festive season means always having one eye on the liquor cabinet. And now, your employee can enjoy a classy glass of everything from rum to port as the evenings draw in and they can put their feet up. Browse our hand-picked edit that includes The British Isles hamper packed with Scottish, Irish and English whiskies. As well as the The Gin O'Clock assortment that’ll get their taste buds tingling, courtesy of the Manchester Wild Spirit bottle along with four botanical tonics. Cheers to that.

Non-Alcoholic Hampers

Sometimes, waking up with a clear head can sometimes feel like the better option. So, if your colleague would prefer to avoid the booze at Christmas time, they can enjoy our selection of alcohol-free hampers that’ll still quench their thirst without the worry of a hangover. The Alcohol-Free Sparkling Wine Trio includes a bottle of sparkling chardonnay sans booze, along with a 0% rosé and a Thomson & Scott Noughty Organic Alcohol-Free Sparkling Wine. There’s even a Sparkling Afternoon Tea Hamper that includes a non-alcoholic bottle of fizz accompanied by decadent delights, and two types of tea. We’ll drink to that.

Self-care Hampers

It’s safe to say that the run-up to Christmas can be a slightly tumultuous affair, what with attending parties, wrapping presents and filling up the kitchen cabinets with everything required to fill bellies come the big day. Which is why, here at Harvey Nichols, we’ve created a range of hampers to present to your hard-working members of staff to remind them to take some time out and indulge in self-care. Pick from The Ultimate Skincare assortment, which is packed with 111SKIN’s innovative formulas that’ll clear fine lines and wrinkles in no time, or The Beauty Sleep selection that includes the Midnight Recovery Concentrate from Kiehl’s, along with a Slip silk pillowcase that’ll aide toward a peaceful night’s sleep.
