A CHRISTMAS FROM ELSEWHERE

Since 1987, we have been bringing back from Ireland, Scotland and England the things you will not find everywhere: knitted wool, teas, biscuits, marmalades, whiskies.

Christmas gift ideas: the journey starts here

A tea left to brew, a wool jumper you never want to take off, a tin of biscuits passed from hand to hand: our Christmas tastes of Ireland and the islands. This is where we spoil the food lovers, dress the winter, and pick out the piece of jewellery we are going to give.

For the children, a selection where soft toys sit alongside wool hats and jumpers.

And even a Christmas just for the dog, with Barbour accessories. Time to explore.

Christmas
gift card

Give them the choice. A gift card is the one sure way to please, with no risk of the wrong size or the wrong taste. An Irish wool jumper, a throw, teas, shortbread or spirits: it is only the beginning of the journey.

A cosy
Christmas

The comfort of long winter evenings. Throws, slippers, Donegal wool socks and sleepwear: everything you need to give someone permission to do nothing at all, somewhere warm.

 pantry

Food gifts and the home

The taste of winter: Whittard teas, hot chocolates, shortbread, marmalades, fruit cakes and spice bread. A grocery that smells of cinnamon and black tea, and keeps the festive season going until winter ends.

Whisky and cellar

Irish whiskeys, Scottish single malts, gins, rums and beers brewed across the water. A selection drawn from more than 2,000 lines, with exclusive bottlings.

clothing

Fashion and textiles

Pieces that keep you warm. The Aran jumper and its stitches handed down from the islands off Ireland's west coast, flannel, tweed. Clothes you keep for ten winters, the opposite of the gift forgotten by January.

Gifts for every budget

In each of these selections you will find a tea from London just as readily as biscuits from Yorkshire, a wool scarf or a bottle from Ireland. At every price, the same intention: to find the gift that is right for them.

Gifts under €30

The small thoughtful ones. Teas, biscuits, hot chocolates, socks, gloves and hats.

Explore

Gifts from €30 to €80

Beyond the small gift. Mugs and teapots, jumpers and shirts, a first bottle.

Explore

Gifts over €80

The gifts people keep for years. An Aran jumper, a Barbour jacket, a wool throw, a fine whisky.
