Spring has arrived and for us Irish we have a variety of holidays coming up to celebrate, one being Mother’s Day! The history of Mother's Day in Ireland can be traced back to medieval times where working children and young people were allowed a day off for the celebration of a special Mother’s Day mass. This mass was celebrated in the local Church & flowers would be gathered on their journey to Church to gift all mothers. Much of the tradition has continued with Mother’s Day now celebrated with beautiful gifts and held as a special day for Mothers across...
With our love of creating complementing food and drink gifts, we thought we’d share some of our favourite traditional, and a few surprisingly successful, combinations of food and drink to try in your Christmas cooking to... because the festive season offers a dazzling array of ways to enhance your Christmas foods by adding a splash of your favourite tipple.
As the festive season is now approaching faster than ever - let Hampers & Co guide you to perfect gifts for everyone on your list, whatever your budget.
According to Irish folklore, the spirits of the dead could roam amongst the living during this time of year. Thanks to the Irish love of food, gatherings and story-telling, it’s now a world-wide celebrated occasion every October 31st.
We adore our suppliers because of their passion and traditions, using hand-done techniques, mostly in batch sizes, which encompasses flavour and the integrity of each producer.
You can truly call Irish artisan food a personal art. And our Hampers reflect that.
